- is is messed up. It is a massive hack and have to be rationalized.
As I said in another thread, the _functionality_ of various is()
expressions are very useful and should be kept. But the _syntax_ is
completely b0rked and needs some serious redesign.
That is what I meant.
- version is a bad version of static if. The static if part of the
version must go.
What's your proposal?
version(foobar) returning a boolean at compile time for instance.
- comma expression is confusing and have very little benefice.
+1. I say that D3 should drop the comma operator. Esp. when doing so
will open up the way for having native syntax for tuples. Needing to
resort to Phobos to have a way to name a compiler-supported type is
backwards and silly.
- out arguments. We can return tuples, out argument is going
backward in history.
Not when there's no way to name tuples without resorting to Phobos (or
copy-n-paste Phobos code).
See how both go together. Remove comma expression, get a nice tuple
syntax, and then remove out parameter seems a nice way to go.
