• Fabian (8/8) Apr 20 2004 hrmm can i make a binary tree with D?
• Stewart Gordon (10/20) Apr 20 2004 Have you written a complete program that shows how it doesn't like this
• C. Sauls (19/30) Apr 20 2004 I've used this... for example, some code from a database converter I
• Stephan Wienczny (5/18) Apr 20 2004 What you are trying is _NOT_ possible.
• Russ Lewis (11/32) Apr 20 2004 Huh? I do see a minor syntax error...but the code is basically valid.

seems it doesnt like having a pointer to a class inside a class?

eg:

Node
{
Node pointer;
}

is this possible yet with D?

Have you written a complete program that shows how it doesn't like this 
yet?  Have you tried compiling it yet?  Have you come up with an exact 
error message yet?

 is this possible yet with D?

Yes, as far as I know.

Stewart.

So I must not understand what the problem is...

What you are trying is _NOT_ possible.

"Node" should be "class Node" or "struct Node"
Then it should work

You can do this:

class Node {
	Node pointer; // this is a reference to a class object
};

or this:

struct Node {
	Node *pointer;
};
