For reference, it's "Multi-dimensional operator overloading example" here:

How are you testing it? The following worked for me:

1) Added that opAssign() to the struct. (Verified that it gets called.)

2) Tested with the following code:

    auto m2 = Matrix();
    auto rows = [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ], [ 5, 6 ] ];
    m2 = rows;

    writeln(m2);

(I've tested with a dynamically generated 'rows' as well.)
