Summary: Array extension methods require parentheses
Product: D
Version: 2.032
Platform: All
OS/Version: All

Severity: normal

Free functions can be used as methods of an array if the first argument in the
function definition is an array. For example:
int indexOf(T)(T[] array, T value) {...}
int[] ints = getInts();
int i = ints.indexOf(2);
However, when the array argument is called without parameters, the expression
fails to compile, as this example shows.
string[] split(string s, string sep) { ... }
class Person {
string name_;
string name() { return name_; }
}
auto person = getPerson();
string[] firstAndLast = person.name.split(" ");
The above line will only compile if it is changed to:
string[] firstAndList = person.name().split(" ");
