           Summary: Nested class can't access var in outer function scope,
                    if nested in class
           Product: D
           Version: 0.163
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: wrong-code
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: web kwi.dk


The nested class can refer to members of the enclosing class, but not variables
in the enclosing function.

I assume the problem is that the context pointer of the anonymous class nested
within Foo's constructor refers to the Foo instance, and not to the stack-frame
of the constructor.

Whether intentional or not, the compiler accepts the program and generates
buggy code.

--- Test case ---

import std.stdio;

void foo()
{
    int x = 42;

    new class Object
    {
        this() { writef("%s\n", x); }
    };
}

class Foo
{
    this()
    {
        int x = 42;

        new class Object
        {
            this() { writef("%s\n", x); }
            // Can't access 'x'. Any members of Foo are accessible, however.   
        };
    }
}

void main()
{
    foo(); // prints 42

    new Foo(); // prints garbage integer (e.g. 0, on my system.)
}
