--- Comment #3 from berni44 <[email protected]> --- I filed two more issues: Issue 20392 and Issue 20393 to distinguish between the different problems. Here the problem is, that this works, but the one above not. --- import std.format; void main() { string str = "foo bar buzz"; string a, b, c; formattedRead(str, "%s %s %s", &a, &b, &c); } --- IMHO %*s should be added (and several others like %*x) to fix this bug. (In reply to Tomoya Tanjo from comment #0) > It should throw an exception (not Error) or should be accepted. As atilaneves and MoonlightSentinel pointed out in PR 7277, the error is correct, because this is high likely a programmers error and not a user mistake. --
