The code snippet from the document page of std.stream can't pass compile:

foreach(ulong n, string line; s)

The following are error message:
D:\Tools\d\dmd>dmd cat.d
cat.d(11): function std.stream.InputStream.opApply (int delegate(ref char[]

Any idea? The document needs update?

Alex:

I think this question is for the D.learn newsgroup.

This may work:
foreach(n, string line; s)
    writeln(line);


 Any idea?

n is of a different type, I think.

Bye,

There's no opApply overload taking an invariant(char)[].  You can use 
dmd 1.x compilers until things have settled down in 2.x.  Or you just 
use a char[] instead of the string alias.  If you need the string to be 
invariant you can cast it to string before using it.

According to the docs for InputStream, opApply is allowed to reuse the 
char buffer, so depending on your needs, you might have to use .idup or 
.dup.
