I wrote a pair of methods that looked like this:
void clean(in void delegate(in T value) func){
this.clean((in T values[]) => {
foreach(value; values) func(value);
});
}
void clean(in void delegate(in T values[]) func){
...
}
I was getting a compile error on the second line of that example:
E:\Dropbox\Projects\d\mach\misc\refcounter.d(63): Error: none of
the overloads of 'clean' are callable using argument types (void
delegate() @system delegate(const(uint[]) values) pure nothrow
@safe), candidates are:
E:\Dropbox\Projects\d\mach\misc\refcounter.d(62):
mach.misc.refcounter.RefCounter!uint.RefCounter.clean(const(void
delegate(const(uint))) func)
E:\Dropbox\Projects\d\mach\misc\refcounter.d(67):
mach.misc.refcounter.RefCounter!uint.RefCounter.clean(const(void
delegate(const(uint[]))) func)
E:\Dropbox\Projects\d\mach\misc\refcounter.d(109): Error:
template instance mach.misc.refcounter.RefCounter!uint error
instantiating
When I got rid of the "=>" and changed the first method to this,
it compiled without issue:
void clean(in void delegate(in T value) func){
this.clean((in T values[]){
foreach(value; values) func(value);
});
}
But I don't understand why. Could someone clarify the difference
between the two?
Thanks!
