Me stupid.

Working:
int main()
{
int testarray[] = { 0, 1, 2};
return 0;
}

Not working:
class testclass
{
public:
static const int testarray[] = { 0, 1, 2};
};


int main()
{
testclass Testobjekt;
return 0;
}

Why is the second example wrong? How should i do that?

TIA
Chris

class testclass
{
public:
static const int testarray[];
};

const int testclass::testarray[] = {1, 2, 3}; // Definition

Note that there are special rules for placing an initializer within the
class for static const integral types (C++ Standard 9.4.2/4). But for your
purposes you'd be good to always define them outside the class.
