Talk:Constants
From Unreal Wiki, The Unreal Engine Documentation Site
Constants with same name in different functions (UE1)
The UE1 compiler UCC.EXE does not support constants with the same name in different functions.
Example:
class test expands Object; function Nothing1() { const CDebug = true; return; } function Nothing2() { const CDebug = true; return; }
On compiling this, a GPF occurs:
Parsing Test General protection fault!

- That's because it doesn't really apply the scpoing concept to constants. They are always global to the class. —Wormbo 00:11, 19 November 2015 (EST)
