I have been playing around with D as a scripting tool and have
been running into the following issue:
-----------------------------------
import std.algorithm;
struct Delim {
char delim;
this(char d) {
delim = d;
}
}
void main() {
char[] d = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
auto delims = map!Delim(d);
}
/*
Compiling gives me the following error:
/usr/include/d/dmd/phobos/std/algorithm.d(382): Error:
constructor test.Delim.this (char d) is not callable using
argument types (dchar)
/usr/include/d/dmd/phobos/std/algorithm.d(382): Error: cannot
implicitly convert expression ('\U0000ffff') of type dchar to char
*/
-----------------------------------
As someone who most of the time doesn't need to handle unicode,
is there a way I can convince these functions to not upcast char
to dchar? I can't think of a way to make the code more explicit
in its typing.
