Hi,

I think this code should work, but the compiler does not agree.
Am I missing something?

void main()
{
     alias funType = void function(int x);
     funType fun = (x) => { assert(x); };   // cannot return 
non-void from void function
     fun(0);
}

 From the language reference I understand that assert shoud return 
void, so I can't see how this code is wrong.

Wrong syntax!
You mean (x) { assert(x); }

or

(x) => assert(x)

Lol... Noob error...
Got confused by the two different ways of writing functions...

Thank you very much (and sorry for wasting some of your time...)
