In any case, please consider that it actually makes no sense to
restrict the expressiveness of the type signature based on how the
function body is specified. (Why on earth should one have to use the {
return expression; } syntax just in order to be able to assert that no
context pointer is required?)
The documentation is in error here.
"(parameters) => expression" is mentioned in the source and I agree it's
valid. I must have forgotton to copy-paste it.
I don't agree that "function(parameters) => expression" is valid though.
Yes, you said that. What I do not understand is why. I think common
sense would mandate that it should be valid syntax.
Can any of the DMD devs clear up if this is intended?
