I'm just in the progress of upgrading to dmd 2.063 and I now get the
following warnings in my code:

  Warning: explicit element-wise assignment
mem[cast(uint)0..this.length()] = (this.opSlice())[] is better than
mem[cast(uint)0..this.length()] = this.opSlice()

I don't quite understand this warning. It doesn't make much sense to
overload the slice operator if I can't use it the same way as the
regular slice operator on a "normal" array. Whats the idea behind this
warning?

Additionally this warning appears in generic code. Which means I don't
even now if a regular array is passed in as a argument or just a type
which overloads the slice operator.


With 2.063 and up when assigning to a slice you'll also need to use the slice operator on the right of the assignment.
This is also true for regular arrays.
