My testing shows that once you "fix" the ranges, then the code mostly just fails at the call side, since all these functions take by value. But had they taken by ref, then the error would be inside the implementation, so good catch. I think there is a bug in isForwardRange. It should test at the very least that the result of save can be used to instantiate a new Range (eg: R r2 = r.save;). If we don't have this, then being able to call save is mostly pretty irrelevant... ...either that, or too restrictive to be useful anyways. I had a fix prepared for another un-related bug in isForwardRange, so I'll also do this. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
