Issue ID: 13082
Summary: Spurious error message with failed call to class ctor
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Keywords: diagnostic
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: DMD

Reporter: [email protected]
class Foo {
this(int a) {}
}
void main() {
string b;
new Foo(b);
}
dmd 2.066beta gives:
test.d(6,5): Error: constructor test.Foo.this (int a) is not callable using
argument types (string)
test.d(6,5): Error: no constructor for Foo
I suggest to omit the second error message. It's better to give only useful
error messages and reduce the noise. Reducing the noise is very useful for
longer programs that give many error messages.
