--- Comment #12 from Vladimir Panteleev <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Jonathan M Davis from comment #11) > @Vladimir Well, clearly you and I have very different expectations when > copying files. You haven't addressed any of the arguments I brought up. > So, if we're not going to fix std.file.copy to work like cp, and I > want a usable copy function, I'm clearly going to have to find the time to > write one myself and use that, and then I'll avoid std.file.copy like the > plague. In that case, I'll have to keep in mind to avoid any code you write like a plague ;) Because as I explained, in most situations using such a function is just wrong, and will result in buggy programs that crash in strange places if something doesn't go according to its plan. --
