To summarize: C++ works as expected and C prevents the assigment
because the conditional operator does not yield an l-value:
Exactly
Now, the only thing is to clearly define what it is in D, as
apparently it is neither the C++ nor the C behaviour. The old
precedence table on the D wiki seems to say it is like C, but the
example of that thread seems to show it's not.
To follow up. What's surprizing for a C guy like me is that D accepts
without problems
(a=1)=2;
i.e. that (a=1) is a lvalue.
I don't have any problem with that part either. The following makes
sense to me. I may have even used it in the past (likely in C++):
(cond ? a : b) = foo;
