That makes me, and I'm sure others as well, curious as to what these
desicions were, and what the final D2 spec looks like. I'd hate to have
to wait for TDPL to come out, and the compiler releases catching up, to
find out. ;)
So, Walter, Andrei, and anyone else in the know:
1. Will array literals be immutable?
No, but the compiler may take different decisions on allocation
depending on usage.
2. Have you found new names for the "ugly" keywords? (__gshared, __traits)
No, but we're not bound to those names. TDPL does not present the most
obscure features.
3. Have you found a "rule" for determining whether an attribute is a
keyword or an @annotation?
No.
4. Will private members inside eponymous templates work?
Yes.
5. Will opIndex and opSlice be merged?
No.
6. Do arrays still have the built-in 'reverse' and 'sort' properties?
Should deprecate those.
7. Are there any changes that haven't been mentioned or discussed on the
NG yet?
Don't think so.
Andrei
