           Summary: Compiler bails out on initializing a variable
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

the source

On compiling with the `-debug' option, i.e. initializing the variable, the
compiler evokes an exception.

Without `-debug', i.e. _not_ initializing the variable, compilation ends
flawlessly.

Is this a valid reduction of your code?


class Foo {
    int bar() {
        return 0;
    }
    int x = bar();
}
void main() {}

My text seems to be lost. Retry:

On compiling with `-debug' dmd 2.060 evokes an exception on winXp x86 with all
updates.

Without `-debug', i.e without initializing the variable, no comülaints.

     int x = bar();
Not at first glance. 1) In your code the missing `this' is declared as the root of the bug report. In my code `this' is present. 2) In your code reversing the lexical sequence of call and declaration does not change the error message. In my code reversing eliminates the bailing out. In addition no error is reported. -manfred -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

This is not a CTFE bug. Here is an example which doesn't use CTFE, properties,
or invalid use of 'this':
---
class C
{
    enum a = typeof(this.b()).init;
    static auto b(){ return 0; }
}

---
If in any of these examples you replace this.b() by simply b(), you get a
"forward reference to b" error message.

Here's a basic patch to do the same thing in this case. I'm not really happy
with it though, the errors for b() and this.b() should be generated in the same
function.

+            error(loc, "forward reference to %s", fd->toChars());
+            return Type::terror;

         int olderrs = global.errors;
         // If it isn't speculative, we need to show errors
         unsigned oldgag = global.gag;

Better test case:

class Bug9055
{
    typeof( Bug9055.b() ) x;
    auto b(){ return 0; }
}

But forward references are allowed. This is another bug.

 function.
 ...
Both cases are valid D code. No error should be generated in either case. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
