Jonathan M Davis <issues.dl...@jmdavisprog.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |issues.dl...@jmdavisprog.co | |m --- Comment #1 from Jonathan M Davis <issues.dl...@jmdavisprog.com> --- Given that auto ref is supposed to be distinct from auto, I would expect it to be a compiler bug if ref with anything other than auto were treated the same as auto ref. auto by itself is supposed to be a placeholder to indicate that a variable is being declared, and is unnecessary when another attribute or identifier clearly indicates that a variable is being declared, and that has nothing to with auto ref. But I have no idea how clear the spec is on that. --
