[Monotone-devel] constants.{cc,hh} & msvc

[Zbynek Winkler]

Hello.

I've tried compiling monotone with msvc and after solving a couple of 
minor issues I got stuck with constants.

It appears that MSVC cannot allocate arrays with size specified as 
extern const variable. It appears that the const variable has to be 
defined in the same translation unit as the array.

Any ideas for the least intrusive change? I can drop the extern from the 
declaration of the "size_t" variables and move the initialization from 
cc to hh. That way would any change of the constants cause recompile of 
a lot of files but right now I do not see any other way.
