Use of "this." is a pet hate of mine, so I decided to rise to your challenge and diss this. http://www.oh-onemorething.com/2008/06/dissing-this.html Cheers David Hi Janick,
good article. Use of “this.” is a pet hate of mine, so I decided to rise to your challenge and diss this. http://www.oh-onemorething.com/2008/06/dissing-this.html

Static data members are like global variables. Non-static data members can only be referenced through an instance, i.e. "this.da" or "pkt.da".

Can you reference da and obtain its value without a constructed instance? “this.da” is an explicit reference to the “packet::da” variable contained in the class

Next time someone asks me why I can now say, "Well, Janick does it, so I can too!" ;-). JL Janick,
