Kagamin: Seems like a popular issue. Y es, it is. Is there a bug report for it? Bug report for what? To ask for [] to be used when you slice a fixed size array? This is in Bugzilla. Or perhaps you are asking for lifetime management of the data? This is currently discussed in the main D

Ary Borenszweig: When assigning a fixed size array to a slice, can't you just allocate memory and copy the data there (I mean, let the compiler do that in that case)? That would be safe, right? Yes, using a .dup: char[] hashstring = toHexString(hash).dup; But the compiler should not do
