Since 'pure' is transitive, if 'equal' needs to be pure, all range primitives (.front, .popFront, .empty) it depends on needs to be pure as well, as then the requirement propagates to all other ranges (map, filter, iota, zip, ...). This is a very huge change. This proposal is practical only when there is a working 'auto pure' implementation, which I don't think will be included in D2 as the syntax is pretty much frozen. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
