<H2>Use of const</H2>
<P>
The <B>const</B> keyword is now used to denote constant functions that do not affect the
object, and for function arguments to denote that the object passed cannot be changed.<P>
This should not affect your application except for where you are overriding virtual functions
which now have a different signature. If functions are not being called which were previously,
check whether there is a parameter mismatch (or function type mismatch) involving consts.<P>
Try to use the <B>const</B> keyword in your own code where possible.<P>
