What do you think are the worst parts of D?
Oh another bad part of D is the attribute names with some being
positive(pure) and some being negative(@nogc) and some of them
not
having an @ on them.
If that's among the worst, yay :o).
My pet peeves about D gravitate around the lack of a clear
approach to escape analysis and the sometimes confusing
interaction of qualifiers with constructors.
For escape analysis, I think the limited form present inside
constructors (that enforces forwarded this() calls to execute
exactly once) is plenty fine and should be applied in other
places as well.
I think correct escape analysis + @safe + scope == win.
BTW, remember all those people that bitch about rvalue to "const
ref". D could be a language that provides rvalue to scope ref.
100% safe and practical. How awesome would that be?
