According to http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/const3.html:
----
Const member functions are functions that are not allowed to change any
part of the object through the member function's this reference.
----
With the following code:
----
class Foo
{
Foo myFoo() const
{
return this;
}
}
void main()
{
auto f = new Foo;
}
----
I get the error:
----
test.d(5): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (this) of type
const(Foo) to test.Foo
----
Why is this? myFoo() isn't changing any part of Foo, so it should be
fine according to the spec... Or is const like immutable here where it
causes the rest of the object to become const if one member function is?
If it is then maybe the spec should be updated to clarify this?
