<p>SWIG correctly parses the keyword <tt>constexpr</tt>, but ignores its functionality. Constant functions cannot be used as constants.</p>
<p>SWIG parses and identifies the keyword <tt>constexpr</tt>, but cannot fully utilise it.
These C++ compile time constants are usable as runtime constants from the target languages.
Below shows example usage for assigning a C++ compile time constant from a compile time constant function:
</p>
<div class="code"><pre>
constexpr int myConstFunc() { return 10; }
const int a = myConstFunc(); // results in error
constexpr int XXX() { return 10; }
constexpr int YYY = XXX() + 100;
</pre></div>
<p>Users needs to use values or predefined constants when defining the new constant value:</p>
<div class="code"><pre>
#define MY_CONST 10
constexpr int myConstFunc() { return MY_CONST; }
const int a = MY_CONST; // ok
</pre></div>
<p>
When either of these is used from a target language, a runtime call is made to obtain the underlying constant.
