Summary: $ property for arrays Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nob...@puremagic.com ReportedBy: bearophile_h...@eml.cc --- Comment #0 from bearophile_h...@eml.cc 2012-04-05 18:05:40 PDT --- This is a low-priority and low-importance "enhancement suggestion" (it's not even an enhancement request because I am not sure if this is a good idea. I will close it if you think it's a bad idea). Currently you are allowed to use $ to denote array lengths inside their [], like this: arr[$ - 1] The idea here is to extend the $ syntax as suffix too, something like this: @property size_t __dollar(T)(in T[] a) pure nothrow { return a.length; } void main() { int[5] a; auto len = a.$; } This shortens the code, and this code isn't harder to understand because D programmers already know that $ means the length of the array. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
