• J Anderson (29/34) May 17 2004 Code that causes this error:
• J Anderson (8/40) May 17 2004 It's the alias that causes the error. What's interesting is if I change...
• Michael Coupland (7/15) May 19 2004 I'm having the same problem.

 I get a:

 Assertion failure: 'id->dyncast() == DYNCAST_IDENTIFIER' on line 2567

 With the new DMD .89 (I'm not using mixins and the code worked in .88).

 I'm going to try to find the problematic code.

Code that causes this error:

struct Standard
{
   
    struct NodeLeaf(NodeInfo, LeafInfo)
    {
        struct Node
        {
            NodeInfo info;
        }
       
        struct Leaf
        {
            LeafInfo info;
        }
       
    }
   
}

struct NodeInfo {  }
struct LeafInfo {  }

alias Standard.NodeLeaf!(NodeInfo, LeafInfo).Node Node;

int main( char[][] args )
{
    return 0;
}

Of course mixins seem to be a good workaround for this.

It's the alias that causes the error.  What's interesting is if I change 
it to:

alias Standard.NodeLeaf NodeLeaf;
alias NodeLeaf!(NodeInfo, LeafInfo).Node Node;

It works.

I'm having the same problem.
I get the DYNCAST_IDENTIFIER error for:

	alias mcoupland.vector.Vec2!(float) Vec2f;

but have no problems with:

	alias mcoupland.vector.Vec2 Vec2;
	alias Vec2!(float) Vec2f;
