digitalmars.D.bugs - [Issue 511] New: Various problems in the documentation

           Summary: Various problems in the documentation
           Product: D
           Version: 0.174
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: spec
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P4
         Component: www.digitalmars.com
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: deewiant gmail.com
 BugsThisDependsOn: 508,509,510


With the upcoming release of D 1.0, I decided to take it upon myself to go
through the documentation and note any inconsistencies, typos, errors, etc.

I'll be posting a plaintext attachment for each page of the documentation as 
soon as I'm done with one, listing problems and possible solutions.

Where there's a complete contradiction with compiler behaviour and the spec,
it'll be separately filed in the Bugzilla. This bug is marked as depending on
those bugs.

I won't go through the formal parts of the spec (LinkageAttribute,
ScopeStatement... *head explodes*) and I'll try to avoid skimming too much,
instead attempting to actually read every sentence in order to ensure I catch
every single typo.

Large missing sections aren't mentioned here: this is only for lots of small
corrections. For instance, the fact that functions taking arrays can be called
as properties of arrays is (still) not mentioned anywhere in the spec, but it
won't be listed below. If the feature were used in an example but not
explained, then it would be listed. This is essentially just because I can't
remember every single feature of D and I'm just woefully unfamiliar with others
(mostly template-related stuff), so I don't notice that something is missing,
whereas it's easy to see that something is mentioned only partially or
incorrectly.

All nontrivial example code will be tested in the latest version of DMD (0.174
at time of writing, and hopefully also at time of completion), and corrections
will be noted to all of that, as well, below.

With thanks to the Doc Comments at the Wiki4D:
http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?DocComments - after processing a page
myself I'll check for anything I've missed there, and it's already proved
helpful, though I've only completed two pages so far.

Format:

PROBLEMs are actual problems, e.g. non-compiling or incorrect example code, or
blatantly incorrect or outdated information in the text or comments.

MISSINGs are situations where something that should be mentioned for
clarification is not, leading to unclear documentation.

NITPICKs are minor, e.g. spelling mistakes in non-code sections or code
comments I see as confusing.

Suggested SOLUTIONs provided where it isn't completely obvious from the problem
description.

Well, it seems that attaching doesn't work at this time - Bugzilla throws
internal errors in my face. I've emailed Brad about the issue. Until it's
fixed, this bug is unfortunately fairly useless, but after that, I'll add the
"patch" keyword and attach a bunch of files.

Corrected patch for word count at http://www.digitalmars.com/d/arrays.html

Made a major screwup in the original patch, corrected that now.

I realised this when I found the original version of the code at
www.digitalmars.com/d/cppstrings.html.

Updated wc.patch attached. It applies to the original code at
www.digitalmars.com/d/arrays.html, not the version created after applying the
previous patch.

Changes in addition to those in the original:
        - foreach loop has an added "j" index, keeping the original "j"s as
"j"s instead of turning them into "i"s
        - the output loop at the end of the program uses the sorted keys array
to match the version at cppstrings.html

`PROBLEM:
        Under "Formatted printing", the D code uses "import stdio;" which
hasn't
        compiled for a very long time: use "import std.stdio".`

I don't think "import stdio;" has ever worked.  The std package was established
long before std.stdio was invented.

Moreover, it should be pointed out that printf shouldn't be mentioned at all
under "The D way".  To repeat the C way before giving the real D solution is
inconsistent with the format of the rest of the page and the other conversion
pages.

"SOLUTION:
        Replace long with float, double, or real, or use casts."
Using casts won't help the out contract to succeed.  However, what will help is
to change it to

    out (result)
    {
        assert(result * result <= x);
        assert((result + 1) * (result + 1) > x);
    }

be able to get to the pages of the spec straight from the comments here.

You're right, my mistake: of course casting the result to a floating point type
won't magically bring back what was lost in truncating to a long.(In reply to

Having come across property.html, I think it would be best to just link to that
and say that enums are integral types. That, or add .sizeof, .alignof, and
.mangleof to the list as well.

Phew! That's all folks.

I won't be going through the Phobos documentation, at least right now: it's
quite a bit more work since there are quite a bit more holes. To go through it
in any reasonable way would practically require writing a large part of it
again.

Most changes folded in for DMD 0.176. The following issues, mostly of type
NITPICK, remain (note that I didn't go through the pages thoroughly again, I
just checked the changes I had already marked and their immediate vicinity):

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/class.html
        Under "Constructors", there is a code snippet "this() { if (a) ?
this(1) : super(); }   // ok" which is syntactically invalid. Remove the "if".

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/ctod.html
        Under "Struct Initializations", there's an incorrect apostrophe in
"{}'s".
        Under "Declaring struct types and variables", there's an excessive
ampersand in the last sentence.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/dbc.html
        Under "In, Out and Inheritance" only one of the "satisified" typos was
corrected to "satisfied".

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/expression.html
        The last code block under "IsExpression" refers to x in a comment,
while it should say v.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/faq.html
        Under "Why are floating point values default initialized to NaN rather
than 0?" the word "NaN's", with an incorrect apostrophe, is used instead of
"NaNs".

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/operatoroverloading.html
        Under "Overloading == and !=" it is stated that that "if (a == null)"
is converted to "if (a.opCmp(null)) which will fail if opCmp() is a virtual
function". It should say opEquals instead of opCmp.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/templates-revisited.html
        Under "SFINAE - Substitution Failure Is Not An Error" the last code
snippet asserts when run: to fix it, change "typedef" to "alias", matching the
change made to http://www.digitalmars.com/d/cpptod.html.

Have you considered reviewing spec diffs between releases, so that it is 
practical to fully keep up with release changes?

-------
A Problem in http://www.digitalmars.com/d/function.html ,
in Lazy Variadic Functions, the following code segment is wrong:
  int delegate[] dg;
  foo(1, 3+x, dg, cast(int delegate[])null);
Should be:
  int delegate() dg;
  foo(1, 3+x, dg, cast(int delegate())null);
