g++ 3.0 doesn't like static const in class w/def outside class

[David Brusowankin]

Is the following a bug ? According to "Think in C++" by Bruce Eckel, it
should.

class fubar {
        static const int size;
        char array [size];
};

const int fubar::size = 100;

The following snippet *DOES* work:

class fubar {
        static const int size = 100;
        char array [size];
};


Pleaserespond via email as well as it is much easier to access my email
than the newsgroup.


Thanks for any help,

David
