DMD acts very badly regarding that specific situation,
As I said, the two error messages it gives are right on target.
"AssertionFailure: 'tn->mod == MODimmutable' on line 879 in file
'mtype.c'" is "right on target" when compiling a D source file?? I'd
hate to see a message you consider bad ;)
As I also said, that was a compiler bug, and I was referring to the two
diagnostic messages preceding it.
Yes, but I believe that the reason bearophile said "acts very
badly" is because of the assert, since the other two messages are
more or less the same as the clang message (albeit slightly more
verbose).
I don't agree, as the thread is about quality of error messages, not bugs in the
compiler.
