Hello,
I am nesting some function calls, and I'm pretty used to making
use of D's Uniform Function Call Syntax, but I'm getting an
error if I try to convert this line:
createSet(createVector(langSize, index)).length;
which works, into this line:
createVector(langSize, index).createSet.length;
receiving the error "Error: no property createSet for type
int[]", when the signature for createSet is:
static auto createSet(in int[] vector) pure
What am I missing here? I'm sure it's stupidly obvious but it
expects one argument, so I'm just calling it without
parentheses.
Do you try to call member functions? UFCS only works with free
functions, meaning declared at module level.
