The following piece of code trigger a compiler error : delegate
module.stuff.__dgliteral1 function literals cannot be class
members
Why is that ? Is it a bug or a feature ?
Delegates contain a context pointer. Your delegate literal has no
context.
You can't initialize it with the address of a method, either. For
struct methods, the context pointer is a pointer to the
structure. You can't have a .init that contains a pointer to an
instance. You probably want to use a function literal.
