This is so unbelievable. I knew the property stuff was being redesigned
since there was so much talk in the ng some time ago. But even now, why
on earth doesn't it work like it should. Is it so hard to copy/steal the
good ideas from the better languages. Guess how C#/Scala solved this - I
bet having a PhD helps getting things right the first time..
Heh, after noticing the thread name "D hates to be dynamic linked" I
should have probably renamed this thread with a funnier name such as "D
stubbornly refuses to learn from mistakes and follow the principles of
good language design".
It took C# 4 years to get properties right. That period also included
finishing a complete language specification document, totalling almost
500 pages. The property feature wasn't present in Pizza (2002), but Scala
(2004 ->) had it. It was taken D 11 years to fail again and again
miserably.
I am having difficulty understanding what you are trying to convey.
