digitalmars.D - Bug 20868 and dip1000

Hello everyone,

Bug 20868 [3] reports the following code:

void scoped (scope void delegate() dg)
{
     static void delegate()[] dgs;
     // dgs ~= dg;  // error

     nonScoped(dg);  // not an error???
}

void nonScoped (void delegate() dg)
{
     static void delegate()[] dgs;
     dgs ~= dg;
}

void main ()
{
     int x;
     scoped({x = 100;});
}

The above code, compiled with -dip1000, compiles succesfully.

If the scoped and nonScoped functions are annotated with  safe, 
the nonScoped call will be reported as an error (as it should).

Spec [1] says: "scope escape analysis is only done for  safe 
functions. For other functions scope semantics must be manually 
enforced.". Dip1000 [2] says: "Errors for scope violations are 
only reported in  safe code.".

My understanding is that scope checks are performed only when 
dip1000 is enabled and in  safe code. However, that is not 
entirely the case. For example:

int* scoped(scope int* p) {
     return p;
}

void main() {
     int i;
     int* p = &i;
     scoped(p);
}

Compiled with dip1000, yields: "onlineapp.d(2): Error: scope 
variable `p` may not be returned".

I want to fix the issue, but I don't know what the official 
specification is. Should we disable any dip1000 checks in  system 
functions or is there any other piece of spec that I am missing?

Cheers,
RazvanN

You need to email Walter on this as he is the one spearheading the dip1000. -Alex

I've run into a similar problem. I never got a satisfactory answer from Walter, and the only solution I could come up with other than rewriting the code was to reach for trusted.

I suspect Walter would complain about a lack of bug report.

I am not sure if it's a bug or working as intended (though I suspect the latter). I couldn't get an answer for that, either.

I'd say report it and if it's working as intended, then he can close himself.
