SafeD is, unfortunately, not finished at the moment. I want to leave
in place a stub that won't lock our options. Here's what we
currently have:
module(system) calvin;
This means calvin can do unsafe things.
module(safe) susie;
This means susie commits to extra checks and therefore only a subset of D.
module hobbes;
This means hobbes abides to whatever the default safety setting is.
The default safety setting is up to the compiler. In dmd by default
it is "system", and can be overridden with "-safe".
What's the rationale for letting the compiler decide? I can't see nothing
but trouble about this. A module will tipically be writen to be safe or
system, I think the default should be defined (I'm not sure what the
default should be though).
The parenthesis pretty much destroys your point :o).
I don't think letting the implementation decide is a faulty model. If
you know what you want, you say it. Otherwise it means you don't care.
