ref int hun() inout { return b; }
This doesn't make sense. inout cannot cast to mutable.
Yah, the DIP should clarify that new behavior. Thanks. -- Andrei
Huh? This behavior cannot be allowed.
If we can return mutable ref to a member when calling a member function
on a const or immutable object, then we are in violation of const.
What is the point of the above? in such a function, what is typeof(this)?
Even if you can make up rules to make this sane, it's going to be
boatloads more confusing than today's situation with inout.
I tend to agree. You seem to have shown that reusing inout for scope
information becomes confusing. -- Andrei
