An example I gave in the bug report just now is File. Imagine you have
a File struct, and want to have an open method:
struct File
{
static File open(string fname);
}
However, now this is valid code:
File f; // <-------- here's the problem!
f.open(fname); // does not do what you think it does...
Yes, but why is he able to get an instance of File? The Designer of
"File" should have rather used a class and disallow to create any
instance of it. (@disable this)
I think this post predates @disable this (not sure), but in any case, that
is not the issue:
File f = File.open("blah.txt");
f.open("blah2.txt");
