 # Compiler Error C2864
 
-'variable' : a static data member with an in-class initializer must have non-volatile const integral type
+> '*member-name*' : a static data member with an in-class initializer must have non-volatile const integral type
 
-To initialize a `static` data member that is defined as `volatile`, non-`const`, or not an integral type, use a member-definition statement. They cannot be initialized in a declaration.
