Issue ID: 22356
Summary: Can't mixin the return type of a function
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: dmd
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
As of DMD 2.097.2, the following program fails to compile:
---
mixin("void") func_name() { /* ... */ }
---
The error message is:
---
bug.d(1): Error: found `func_name` when expecting `;`
bug.d(1): Error: declaration expected, not `(`
---
According to the language spec, any BasicType can be used as a function return
type [1], and a MixinType can be used anywhere a BasicType is allowed [2], so
the program should compile.
