Leandro Lucarella <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|1.042 |1.006 Severity|enhancement |regression --- Comment #10 from Leandro Lucarella <[email protected]> 2009-12-03 19:18:41 PST --- So, this is *really* a regression then, I'm sorry I changed the severity. But are you sure it works in DMD 1.041? I tracked this down in the code and it was introduced at DMD 1.006, when the -J option got implemented, so I can't see how it could work in DMD 1.041: http://www.dsource.org/projects/dmd/changeset/121 http://www.dsource.org/projects/dmd/changeset/121#file4 (expression.c) http://www.dsource.org/projects/dmd/changeset/121#file11 (mars.c) http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/changelog.html#new1_006 Before that, you could use string imports in a very promiscuous way. The specs are very brief about string imports and doesn't say anything about restrictions: The AssignExpression must evaluate at compile time to a constant string. The text contents of the string are interpreted as a file name. The file is read, and the exact contents of the file become a string literal. So, the -J option seems to be an implementation-defined behavior, as such, I guess it should be documented. For D1, I don't know if the specs should be changed, but I guess the old behavior should work (the attached patch can be used to allow secure string imports without prohibiting sub-directories altogether). I don't know if the compiler option shouldn't be documented too, it seems pretty useless to make this an implementation defined behavior, you'll have to stay always with the most restrictive implementation limitations if you want to write code that can be used with any compiler, or avoid using this feature at all. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
