Thinking about it why should that matter when not compiled
using
-property? I'm guessing the template enforces it should be a
property?
The problem is that this test is used in isForwardRange:
static assert (is(typeof(r1.save) == R));
where R is the type of the range. So if .save is not @property,
then
typeof(r1.save) would be a function pointer, rather than the
type of the
function's return value, and so the test will fail.
But wouldn't an & be needed to get a function pointer?
