Hi,
I seem to have run into a strange error..
When I put tmp1 outside the main loop, it compiles fine and gives the
expected output.
When tmp1 is put inside the main loop, the compiler seems to get stuck
in a loop?
I've tested it on: http://dlang.org/index.html
See error on bottom (lol)
--------------------
#!/usr/bin/rdmd
import std.stdio;
//immutable int[] tmp1 = [1, 2]; // compiles
void main()
{
immutable int[] tmp1 = [1, 2]; // does not compile
int[tmp1.length] tmp2 = tmp1;
tmp2[] += 1;
writeln(tmp1);
writeln(tmp2);
}
--------------------
I'd argue that this is a bug. The length of an immutable variable with
a constant initializer should be a constant expression.
Presumably this is caused by the compiler rewriting the array literal
into an allocation.
