- Max Samukha (6/22) Mar 09 2007 PONG is not constant. Use 'const' to declare a constant:
Hi there :) I'm just doing a basic switch/case like this: static final int PONG = 1; ... input.msgcode = PONG; ... switch(input.msgcode) { case PONG: .... break; } If I do something like this I get the following error: "server.d:189: Error: case must be a string or an integral constant, not PONG" What do I do? Cheers!

Cheers!PONG is not constant. Use 'const' to declare a constant: const int PONG = 1; ''final' is ignored in your example. It is used to make public member functions final: http://www.digitalmars.com/d/function.html
