The sooner this issue is dealt with, the less risk of this happening. This is unlikely to ever be a problem. D2 compilers break enough code (wrong or not) between versions that using one a couple of releases old probably won't compile your code anyway. Of course, this will hopefully change in the future. The bigger issue that makes this less of a waste of time is that D compiler with different backends, or running on different backends, may choose not to implement cent/ucent, and if they do this in the parser then the code will be non-portable. The proposed patch is a much more correct solution to this problem. Regardless, there is a patch for this issue already out there which is waiting for review. I don't think discussing it further at this point will achieve anything. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
