OK so apparently the GC was working fine, my bad.
I'm not sure about the compiler, though.
When I have this code:
void foo(int a, scope void delegate(int) sink)
{
sink(a);
}
void main()
{
int tmp;
foo(5, delegate(int c) { tmp = c; });
}
I get a heap allocation as soon as main() is entered. It only happens
because of the closure.
Why does this happen? Isn't the whole point of "scope" to prevent this?
(I didn't post this on the bug tracking system since I'm not sure if
it's by design or not.)
'scope' in the position you have it, will not prevent this, no. Instead,
it will have to be used upon declaring the delegate, like this:
void bar(int a, scope void delegate(int) sink)
{
sink(a);
}
void main()
{
int tmp;
scope fn = (int c) { tmp = c; };
bar(5, fn);
}
