Line 25 happens because of `[a.name]`. You request a new
array: the memory for this has to be allocated (the reason
why the compiler says "may" is because sometimes, e.g. if
the array literal itself contains only literals, the
allocations needn't happen at runtime and no GC call is
necessary). Since you don't actually use the array, get rid
of it:

Hi,
Thank you for your help and the DMD version that i am using
is DMD 2.076.0 and yes I am on windows.
Please post a compilable, minimal example including how that
function gets called that yields you that compiler output.
Hi,
Please find the example code below,
[...]
Cannot reproduce under Linux with dmd 2.076.0 (with commented out
Windows-only check). I'll try to see what happens on Windows once
I have a VM setup.
Another similar issue :
I removed the [a.name] and the issue in line 25 has resolved,
but for another function i am getting the same error
string[][] cleanFiles(string FFs, string Step) {
auto dFiles = dirEntries(FFs, SpanMode.shallow).filter!(a =>
a.isFile).map!(a =>[a.name , a.timeCreated.toSimpleString[0 ..
20]]).array; -> Issue in this line
if (Step == "run")
dFiles.each!(a => a[0].remove);
return dFiles;
}
if the replace the line in error as below then i am getting the
error "Error: cannot implicitly convert expression dFiles of
type Tuple!(string, string)[] to string[][]"
auto dFiles = dirEntries(FFs, SpanMode.shallow).filter!(a =>
a.isFile).map!(a => tuple(a.name,
a.timeCreated.toSimpleString[0 .. 20])).array;
You changed the type of dFiles, which you return from cleanFiles,
without changing the return type of cleanFiles. Change the return
type of cleanFiles to the type the compiler error above tells you
it should be (`Tuple!(string, string)[]` instead of
`string[][]`), or let the compiler infer it via auto (`auto
cleanFiles(...`).
