           Summary: ill-defined for statement
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: andrei metalanguage.com


This compiles and runs:

void main() {
    int x = 2;
    for (while (false) x = 2; x != 2; ) {}
}

along with some other similarly odd constructs.

That's been known for some time. It's done that way to allow this to work:

for(int a = 5; a < 10; a++) {}
----[statment]

I think the best "fix" would be to switch from a statement, to allowing an
expression or declaration.

OTOH I'm fine with it as it is as it doesn't cause any known problems with
"reasonable" code.

That's how I thought it was defined - but it turns out

ForStatement:
    for ( Initialize Test ; Increment ) ScopeStatement

Initialize:
    ;
    NoScopeNonEmptyStatement

so I was wrong about this being accepts-invalid.

I'll mark it as invalid, then.
