- aarti_pl (9/9) Aug 01 2009 Ok. Let's do some voting.
- Leandro Lucarella (17/26) Aug 01 2009 This is getting ridiculous, we have as many property proposals as voting
- Andrei Alexandrescu (4/19) Aug 01 2009 It is ridiculous, particularly in light of the fact that no poll shows
- Michiel Helvensteijn (24/26) Aug 01 2009 Not everyone may agree, or understand. But if you look at it objectively...
- Ary Borenszweig (2/22) Aug 01 2009 That's because we can't see who is voting and if anyone is cheating.
- aarti_pl (5/28) Aug 01 2009 Trivial cheating is rather not possible - there is only one voice per IP...
- Chad J (3/12) Aug 01 2009 Interesting. I can't tell because it seems like I can still submit
- Oliver Hoog (3/14) Aug 01 2009 You can't vote with the same IP, but with another one.
Ok. Let's do some voting. I extended pool with latest syntax suggestion. I also added additional pool about omissible parenthesis feature. Here is the link: http://www.igsoft.net/dpolls/index.php Let's vote and please do not kill my server ;-) BR Marcin Kuszczak (aarti_pl)

But if you look at it objectively, D's 'properties' cause inconsistencies, ambiguities and limitations. I'm not listing them again, since it doesn't seem to have any effect. I fully understand that the simple rewriting rules currently used were by far the easiest way to get properties into D. No extra syntax or anything. Walter probably only needed a day or two to put them into the compiler. Not much thought had to go into it. This is evident by the fact that +=, ++, etc. don't work. And then you could advertise that D had properties. Then some people started to abuse property syntax to save three keystrokes (one for the shift-key). So now all of a sudden, real properties can't ever work for D, since you'd lose your no-parentheses function-calls, and some backwards compatibility. But it is a flawed design. Many people have tried to explain this to you. But when faced with the facts, both you and Walter avoid the issue. You focus on minor mistakes in peoples posts and then ignore their real message. And often you simply never reply. Take, for example: http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/Reddit_why_aren_t_people_using_D_93528.html#N93753 I don't think D will soon adopt the kind of properties some of us have been advocating. You'll just treat the symptoms, I expect. This post is not meant to convince you. It simply needed to be said. I apologize for my confrontational tone. -- Michiel Helvensteijn
