gmock_gen.py does not reproduce "const" for const return type

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
execute gmock_gen.py on a class containing the following type of method:

class AbstractObject{

public:

virtual const char* getObject() const = 0;
};

file MockBug.h containing a class with this type of method is attached.

What is the expected output? 

MOCK_CONST_METHOD0(getObject, const char*() );


What do you see instead?

MOCK_CONST_METHOD0(getObject, char*() );

file mock_test_output.txt is attached.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

googlemock 1.1.0
python 2.6
windows xp


Used this googlemock cookbook example as a reference that const should be
included:

for method in the cookbook:  virtual const Bar& GetBar() const;
cookbook example:  MOCK_CONST_METHOD0(GetBar, const Bar&());

Committed revision 145.  You can use the upgraded script by downloading it 
here: 
http://googlemock.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/scripts/generator/cpp/gmock_class.py

Install that file over top of the existing gmock_class.py file and that should 
fix
this problem.  Let me know if you have more issues.

Thanks again for the bug report.
