Well, I think MSVC uses something like __inline, or maybe _inline, or
some other directive to handle it. I know it *does* support it, just not
like GCC. :(

Anyway, I went ahead and removed the 'inline' declaration, and also
removed 'const' because that was causing compiler warnings. I don't
really understand why:


void my_func(const unsigned char **bar)
{
}

void other()
{
  unsigned char *foo = "some stuff";

  my_func(&foo);
}


complains about 'const' issues. Since under normal circumstances an
'unsigned char *' can be freely sent to a 'const unsigned char*'. I
guess I'll chalk it up to compilers being stupid, but if someone has
better info, I'm listening.

I also know there is something about the difference between:

const unsigned char *

and

unsigned char const *

Especially versus

unsigned char const * const *

Which I believe is the correct way to say that you have a pointer you
shouldn't modify pointing to data you shouldn't modify.

What we want is a pointer that we can assign to, which references data
that we shouldn't assign to. For which "const unsigned char **" seems to
work, as would "unsigned char const **". But it seems to think that
"&(unsigned char*)" is not valid for... :(
