Hi,

Is there a reason why I cannot compile the following code:

module test;

struct Test {
int delegate(int) f;
}

Test s = Test((int x) { return x + 1; });

void main(string[] args) {
return;
}

dmd 2.057 says:

test.d(7): Error: non-constant expression cast(int
delegate(int))delegate pure
nothrow @safe int(int x)
{
return x + 1;
}

?

The 'this' pointer in the delegate:
Test((int x) { return x + 1; });

is a pointer to the struct literal, which isn't constant.
You actually want it to point to variable s.


The struct literal residing in static storage has a variable address?
Why would the context pointer point to the struct literal anyway? It is not required.


OTOH if it were a function, it should work, but it currently doesn't.


It should even work for delegates. The context pointer would just be null.
