The 2.0 version splits phobos into druntime and phobos libraries (thanks to
Sean Kelly). This will enable both Tango and Phobos to share a common core
library.

There are a lot of structural changes that go along with this, so expect
some rough patches with this release. It may take a followup release to file
them down. There's also some renaming of imports and function names, as a
compromise with Tango names.
Wao! Missed this at first:
class Foo
{
ref int getref() {
return m_int;
}
private:
int m_int = 23;
}
void main() {
auto foo = new Foo;
writefln(foo.getref);
foo.getref() = 7;
writefln(foo.getref);
}
//Outputs:
//23
//7
It works! This is maybe even bigger news than cure for TangoPhobia!
But I think maybe more documentation is needed in the Ref returns
section regarding how this affects opIndex.
class Foo
{
this() {
m_arr.length = 10;
foreach(i, ref a; m_arr) { a=i;}
}
int[] array() {
return m_arr;
}
ref int opIndex(size_t idx) {
return m_arr[idx];
}
private:
int[] m_arr;
}
void main() {
auto foo = new Foo;
foo[3] = -99;
//hello.d(44): Error: operator [] assignment overload with opIndex(i,
value) illegal, use opIndexAssign(value, i)
//hello.d(44): function hello.Foo.opIndex (uint idx) does not match
parameter types (int,int)
//hello.d(44): Error: expected 1 arguments, not 2
}
Apparently using opIndex with ref return is not allowed as a way to
set an index.
This works though:
*(&foo[3]) = -99;
Is there a good reason why it shouldn't be possible to use opAssign as
a replacement for opIndexAssign?
--bb
opindexAssign will still be needed when opindex has a non-ref return type.
I think the entire operator paraphernalia is due for a serious overhaul.
