File math.d:




File main.d:




dmd main math

{...}\src\phobos\std\math.d(12): module math is in multiple defined

Is there a way to resolve this? If module names have to be globally unique
within a program, what's the point of package qualifiers?

cheers

No, I wasn't, and yes, the problem goes away if I add a module statement with an
explicit package qualifier. Thanks for that.

I'm still puzzled as to what's going on, though. If the package is part of the
module identifier then there shouldn't have been a clash in the first place, and
if it isn't then the module statement shouldn't have made any difference.

Is this a (known) bug in D?

cheers
Mike
