Hi,
The following seems like a bug to me (reduced code, FILE*
changed to int*):
```d
@safe:
struct LockedFile
{
private int* fps;
auto fp() return scope => fps;
}
void main()
{
int* p;
{
auto lf = LockedFile(new int);
p = lf.fp;
}
assert(p != null); // address escaped
}
```
There's no error with -dip1000.
I'll file this unless I overlooked something.
The state of the memory can not be guaranteed by the compiler.
That is the responsibility of the programmer. When a pointer gets
over-written the memory it was pointing to remains owne by the
program. It could be accesible by recovering the pointer. If you
want to destroy the memory there are various ways of doing this
depending on your performance needs. D has an optional garbage
collector by default.
