What I'd _really_ like to see fixed though is the anchor-generation with ddoc so that I can actually properly organize the links at the top of std.datetime. - Jonathan M Davis

Get current date and time with std.datetime
Hi, I have a program that uses the old time stuff before the module std.datetime. I have a DateTime object, but I can't seem to set its properties to the current time. Some thing like: DateTime dateTime; dateTime = getCurrentDateTime(); -JoelCNZ

On Linux, I'm getting a segmentation fault, the same as I always have gotten when the stack gets blown. So, this does appear to be a Windows-specific issue. - Jonathan M Davis
Stack Overflow error missing
I'm fairly sure this used to give me a stack overflow error: void test() { test(); } void main() { test(); } Now it only returns exit code -1073741819. Could this be related to how WinXP managers error reporting? It's possible that I have some error reporting service disabled, but I'll have to check. Is anyone else getting just the exit code?

The fact that changing the parameter to foo makes it compile is a big clue. Note, this should compile even if foo isn't pure, since new is pure (no matter what type of function it is in). -Steve

The compiler already performs such checks, in this case it answers "no" and I don't understand why, I think it's not the right answer. > You would need to have pure delegates to have a real effect, wouldn't > you ? The compiler is already able to infer delegate purity, I think. Bye, bearophile

I suspect > it's a DMD bug, but I am not sure. The error message tells you why. new int[1] is not castable to immutable int[] (in a pure function). The solution is to change new int[1] to make it immutable directly. That is very consistent, so I don't think this should be considered as a bug. There may be an improvement to ask to make the compiler able to check when the cast to immutable is safe, but I don't think there is a bug. >> Or does this have something to do with implicit casts to immutable for >> pure functions? > > Right. > > >> I'm only vaguely familiar with pure.. > > I suggest you to use purity more and more in D, because it helps and > with the recent bug fixes it is also becoming usable in D (but there > are some significant problems left, example: map/filter are not pure > yet). You would need to have pure delegates to have a real effect, wouldn't you ? -- Christophe
