In C# you can:

	class Foo
	{
		public readonly string Bar = "Hello";

		// or
		public string Baz
		{
			get { return m_bar; }
		}
	}

The first one is read-only everywhere. The second is read-only in the 
outside but member functions can change the value of m_bar. I still miss 
read-only local variables, though.
