While I do agree that it might be nice to associate it more directly with StopWatch, putting it in the module should be clear enough. We already have it so that everything in a module has private access to the classes and structs within it, so modules are already somewhat coupled by their very nature. It really doesn't cost anything to stick it directly in the module, much as it would be ideal to have it directly associated with the struct. But then again, I never thought that just taking a bool was a problem. I understand why Andrei wants that sort of thing as an enum, and that's fine with me, but I don't really find it to be all that much better, personally. Regardless, we don't want them getting too verbose. - Jonathan M Davis _______________________________________________ phobos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/phobos
