[Issue 926] Revival of implicit conversion from Derived[] to Base[] not noted in changelog
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=926 Jack Stouffer changed: What|Removed |Added Status|REOPENED|RESOLVED CC||j...@jackstouffer.com Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #9 from Jack Stouffer --- Remarking this as won't fix because it's a luxury D1 issue that no one really has time for, and frankly, who honestly cares? No one uses D1 anymore and the fact that a changelog entry is missing for something that came out eight years ago now is not going to be fixed. --

The way to indicate the latter is to leave it open and reassign it to nobody - this shows that it's free for anybody to take the issue and work on it. Here's an idea: I'll have a look at it myself over the next few days. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=926 Walter Bright changed: What|Removed |Added Status|REOPENED|RESOLVED Resolution||WONTFIX --- Comment #6 from Walter Bright 2012-01-29 10:29:25 PST --- (In reply to comment #5) > The D1 spec allows what? It allows implict conversion of an array of derived classes to an array of base classes. Thomas quoted the relevant verbage. > The spec and the changelog to contradict each other? What matters is what the spec says and what the compiler does now. If someone wants to go through the compiler/spec diffs from years ago to see when things changed, that's fine and I'll fold in changelog changes if they present them, but I've got a lot of current issues to address, and historical spelunking is off the radar. > In which DMD version was this misfeature revived, anyway? I don't know. I agree it is a misfeature, but I am loathe to break existing D1 code at this point, so I believe it should stay as it is. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

D2 does not allow it.

The 'bug' that it didn't behave according to spec was subsequently fixed, but Walter completely forgot about the time when the anomaly was introduced. (b) It was disallowed in 0.73, the spec updated, and then the reversion both in the spec and in the compiler was inadvertently left out of the changelog. --
