Hello,
I have the following program:

import std.stdio;
void main( string[] args ) {
string str = "Hello";
write( "file.txt", str );
string hello_file = readText("file.txt");
writeln( hello_file );
}
When I try to compile this I get:
test.d(6): Error: std.stdio.write!(string, string).write at
/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/stdio.d(1656) conflicts with
std.file.write at /usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/file.d(318)
I think this should work. The example at the end of (D file

Uses write() exactly the way I am using it here.
You have to give the full path - std.file.write. As both
functions can take the
same arguments, and you've imported both, the compiler has no
way of knowing
which you mean. So, you have to disambiguate for it. It's only
a problem
because you imported both modules.

Thanks. Seems kind of an odd design decision (or oversight) that
two commonly used functions in the standard library would clash
in this manner, but I guess it is no big deal.
Cheers,
Craig
