           Summary: [GSoC] Value returned by function cannot be passed as
                    ref const.
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com

struct Test {}

void takes( ref const Test x ) {}

Test gives() { return Test(); }

int main() {
    takes( Test() );     // compiles
    // takes( gives() ); // doesn't compile
    readln();

    return 0;
}

Is this required behaviour? The compiler complains about gives() not being an
lvalue, but the code doesn't seem to require it to be an lvalue.

No 'ref' does require the parameter as an lvalue, even if 'const' is present.
This is different from C++. I think it's a duplicate of bug 3167.

Also, the struct literal 'Test()' currently returns an lvalue, not an rvalue.
See bug 5889.

Aha, I guess you're right, I assumed that const would fix it (bug 3167 only talks about normal refs), 'in' works though. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

Bug 3167 does talk about 'const ref' in the later comments, e.g. http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3167#c12. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

You're right again, sorry. I looked through the comments, but somehow didn't see that one. I'll mark this as invalid. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
