I'm having an error related to yours: when I call writeln function in a closed stdout I will get a segfault message. Example:

import std.stdio;

void main() {
 stdout.close();
 write("hello\n");
}

The code above will crash with segfault buf the following code will raise an exception instead:

import std.stdio;

void main() {
 stdout.close();
 stdout.write("hello\n");
}

In one of the specializations of the write function in the std.stdio (the call site that you showed in your post) no check for closed stdout (when stdout._p is null) is done. I can't say if this is a bug in the write function or the desired behaviour (I'm a novice here).


With DMD of git master, the latter code seems to raise Exception (stdio.d(2247): Enforcement failed) instead of segfault.

Oops, I meant 'former' of course.
