Hey everyone,
I, once again, have a problem with an error I can't seem to figure out!
The situation:
- a class, inherited by five other classes;
- the class having a static function which returns one
if its subclasses depending on the input of a string.
Something like this:
class Node
{
static Node parse(ref string s)
{
/* Get value to switch by, an enum. */
auto switchable = /* ... */;
final switch (switchable)
{
case Blah.one: return new OneNode(s);
case Blah.two: return new TwoNode(s);
/* ... */
}
}
}
And I get the mentioned error. I don't understand it:
is it saying I'm using `this' in a static member function
called `parse'? Am I insane; where am I referencing it?
The other classes are in this form:
class OneNode : Node
{
/* ... stuff ... */
this(ref string s)
{
/* Does stuff with `s'. */
}
}
Do you need more information?
Yes; It is extremely hard to solve the problem when there is no code
snippet given which exhibits the problematic behavior in question.
