The following is a bug, right? class C { static foo() // <-- no return type; void is assumed {} } void main() { static assert(is(typeof(C.foo()) == void)); } Ali
Not a bug. This is function return type deduction. If you return something from foo, then the return type will change. What is often missed is that 'auto' does not mean anything. It exists just to make the parser happy.
