After a long discussion with Andrei, it seems that it is left
to
right.
Then the spec should be fixed.
unittest
{
int a = 0;
++a = a;
assert(a == 1);
}
++a isn't supposed to be an lvalue (it is not assignable).
Don't know though whether you find it surprising that the above
code
passes? But whether it is left to right or right to left does
not matter
that much. At least it's defined and you can internalize it.
The more I think about the more sense it makes to have it left
to right.
It shouldn't pass as the entry has never been assigned when
computing the value.
