I'd like to remind everyone of this issue. I hold a strong belief that even if
the internals of associative arrays are impure, unsafe, and may throw,
properties for associative arrays should "lie" about these things because they
are invaluable mechanisms for implementing so many pure, @safe, and nothrow
algorithms.

They aren't really pure because they modify global state, but so does
allocating memory, which pure allows for.

They aren't @safe, because they rely on certain memory techniques, but these
are internals that form the language.

They aren't nothrow, because checking the properties of an associative array
may fail, but this is as much of an unrecoverable error as an OutOfMemoryError.

If the properties of associative arrays take on all of these things, it would
make it possible to create an entire host of code which is pure, @safe, and
nothrow. (For starters, I can imagine undirected and directed graph types which
meet these requirements.)

Any updates? I'm trying to implement toHash() method which needs to be nothrow,
and inside it I use aa.byKey or aa.keys or foreach (...; aa). Currently I
cannot without some hacks. Fixes in rt.* should be relatively easy for most of
this functions.

Regards,
Witek

Currently associative arrays can't be used much in pure nothrow functions:

void main() pure nothrow {
int[int] aa;
aa.rehash;
auto L = aa.length;
auto x = aa.get(0, 10);
auto k = aa.keys;
auto v = aa.values;
auto bk = aa.byKey();
auto bv = aa.byValue();
}


DMD 2.055 gives:

test.d(3): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'rehash'
test.d(4): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'length'
test.d(5): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'get'
test.d(6): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'keys'
test.d(7): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'values'
test.d(8): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'byKey'
test.d(9): Error: pure function 'main' cannot call impure function 'byValue'
test.d(3): Error: aa.rehash is not nothrow
test.d(4): Error: aa.length is not nothrow
