--- Comment #4 from Don <clugd...@yahoo.com.au> 2010-05-10 04:20:38 PDT --- (In reply to comment #3) > Actually, you need a type besides a D array because you do not want to trigger > runtime calls when setting the length. I don't understand this comment. A D array is used internally in the function. The function calculates a void[], and then casts this to ulong to return it. Then, in the compiler, it grabs the ulong back into a pointer. This all happens in the glue layer -- it's too late for any runtime calls to be added. Have I missed something? > There might be opitmizations that the compiler makes when forming a ulong vs. > some arbitrary type, I'll have to investigate that. Could be, but as far as I can tell, the dynamic array ABI is identical to ulong (result in EDX:EAX). So the compiler could probably cast it to ulong internally in e2ir.c, if there were any problems. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
