But the compiler (D2) accepts nested aa literals remaining anonymous:
writeln(["a" : ["b" : "c"]]); // --> "a:b:c"
(where "auto aa = ..." fails)
The difference is initializer vs expression.
initializers occur on the rhs of a decl/assignment, and they are not
parsed the same as expressions (e.g. you can have 'void' and struct
literals as initializers -
int i = void;
X x = {a: {b: 1}, c: "hi"};
- you can't have these in expressions).
OIC, ty.
Initializers are also stored and treated differently in the compiler,
which results in this and other inconsistencies
Yeah I know. :( I've been working on implementing some missing CTFE
functionality so that one day I might actually get to upgrade from
2.028, and having dealing with initializers vs expressions is a real pita.
