This example comes from http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/template.html
int x;
template Foo(alias X)
{
static int* p = &X;
}
void test()
{
alias Foo!(x) bar;
*bar.p = 3; // set x to 3
static int y;
alias Foo!(y) abc;
*abc.p = 3; // set y to 3
}
Compiling this gives the following compiler errors on the line inside Foo:
t.d(5): Error: non-constant expression & x
t.d(5): Error: non-constant expression & y
Changing static int* to enum int* fixes the compiler errors.
Are these pages written using DDoc? Is it possible to extract and compile the
examples to
ensure they are correct? And perhaps use asserts instead of/in addition to
comments where
possible (Asserts are used many places already)?
Executable and verifiable examples could be a useful feature as plain text
documentation and
examples have a tendency to rot.
