Bolpat <qs.il.paperi...@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |qs.il.paperi...@gmail.com --- Comment #18 from Bolpat <qs.il.paperi...@gmail.com> --- As Andrei pointed out, readf has its signature for historic reasons. Please check out my pull: https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/5247 If I'm correct, we can deprecate formattedRead and with it readf with pointers. Tell me if I'm wrong, but there is no justification to make readf @trusted. It accesses a __gshared global and is not @safe for good reasons. --
