ok. one line in this code is causing a problem (as noted in
comments)
an explanation as to the cause, is welcome ;-)
// ------------------------
module test;
import std : writeln, writefln;
import std.conv : to;
void main()
{
string str = "abc;def;ab";
char* w = cast(char*)str;
writeln(replaceChar(w, str.length, ';', 'X'));
}
immutable(char)[] replaceChar(char* str, ulong len, char ch1,
char ch2)
{
for (ulong i = 0; i < len; i++)
{
if (str[i] == ch1)
{
writefln("Found %c at str[%d]", ch1, i); // fine
// problem is with this next line:
// the line works fine using DMD on windows - but
crashes if using LDC on windows
// On Linux, both DMD and LDC -> sigsegv
//str[i] = ch2;
// seems simple enough
// - just replace the char currently in element
str[i]) with 'X'
}
}
return to!(immutable(char)[])(str);
}
// ------------------------
