Vladimir Panteleev <dlang-bugzi...@thecybershadow.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #1 from Vladimir Panteleev <dlang-bugzi...@thecybershadow.net> --- I believe formattedRead correctly mimics the behaviour of C's scanf function. See the documentation e.g. on http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdio/scanf/. The relevant part is: > A single whitespace in the format string validates any quantity > of whitespace characters extracted from the stream (including none). Emphasis on "including none". As such, I believe the behaviour is as expected, so I'm going to close this, but please reopen if you have a compelling argument to do so. --
