Related QuestionsWhat does "const Fred* p" mean?
Const correctness, C++ FAQ LiteIt means p points to an object of class Fred, but p can't be used to change that Fred object (naturally p could also be NULL). For example, if class Fred has a const member function called inspect(), saying p->inspect() is OK. But if class Fred has a non-const member function called mutate(), saying p->mutate() is an error (the error is caught by the compiler; no run-time tests are done, which means const doesn't slow your program down).
Related QuestionsDoes "const Fred* p" mean that *p can't change?
Const correctness, C++ FAQ Litequot;const Fred* p" means that the Fred can't be changed via pointer p, but there might be other ways to get at the object without going through a const (such as an aliased non-const pointer such as a Fred*). For example, if you have two pointers "const Fred* p" and "Fred* q" that point to the same Fred object (aliasing), pointer q can be used to change the Fred object but pointer p cannot.
