           Summary: dup does not postblit
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: monarchdodra gmail.com



All the title. This seems like an obvious bug, but was not able to find a
similar entry, so I'm filing it:

//----
struct S
{
    int i;
    this(this)
    {
        assert(0);
    }
    void opAssign(S)
    {
        assert(0);
    }
}

void a()  safe
{
    S[] s = [S(1), S(2)];
    s = s.dup;
}
//----

Runs fine. It shouldn't even compile ( safe can't call postblit). If you were
to try to put a struct with "deep copy" semantics in an array and dup that
array, things will not end well.

Marking as critical because, well, calling postblit when copying something
seems like the *minimal* amount of work that needs to be done.

See also:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=8409 : Proposal: implement
arr.dup in library
This would be an easy fix, since a library implementation *should* have compile
time access to postblit.

And:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5700 :
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5700 : Allow dup in nothrow
functions
This one mentions that being nothrow depends on whether or not the postblit is
nothrow, but apparently, it doesn't even get called. Note that dup is marked as
safe though (which, in this case, it shouldn't be.)

Herp derp. I'm an idiot. Looks like I was running dmd, and not my usual rdmd,
which could explain why it was "running" so good.
