The order of fields in a struct is fixed, so in theory that ought to work. It's a while since I last looked at it, but I remember there were severe problems with anonymous unions nested inside anonymous unions. There's code elsewhere in the compiler which tries to identify fields based on their type + offset, but that cannot work. It appears to work at the moment, but only because it assumes when fields are initialized in order with no gaps. Still, I've fixed some of those compiler bugs recently, so maybe it's more possible now. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
