I kind of agree with OP that a specifically typed string is not really any different than an ambiguous one. In fact, the compiler still adds the trailing null character even if you specify 'w'. The one possibility I see that would be an issue is some type of overloading decision where you want to specifically choose the const(wchar)* version. Admittedly, this is very unlikely to occur in the wild. --

Essentially that 'c' gives it an explicit type, so conversions are disabled. --

A string literal is convertible to immutable(anychar)[] and immutable(anychar)*. (That should apply to ...w though). const(wchar)* wcptr = foo; -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---
