In my particular case the compiler can rule out ```opIndex```
so why does it abort instead of trying ```opIndexUnary``` ? Or
was it trying and it didn't work ? If that's the case I'd like
to know the reason why it discarded ```opIndexUnary```.
Anyways all the answers so far are much appreciated!
Your code
```d
auto x = i[1]++;
```
Expands to:
```d
auto x = (auto e = i[1]/*notice opIndex*/, ++i[1]/* notice
opIndexUnary*/, return e;);
```
This doesn't happen with pre increment. No compiler shenanigans.
Hence your problems.
Please take a look at the library I mentioned previously, it may
help.
