digitalmars.D.learn - opAssign work not with initialisation?

Hello,

struct S {
    int value;
    void opAssign(int value) {
        this.value =3D value;
    }
}
unittest {
    S s1;
    s1 =3D 3;	// OK
    S s2 =3D 3;   // _build_  error
}
=3D=3D>
Element.d(105): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (3) of type int=
 to S

Do I miss something? And why not a compile-time error?


Thank you,
Denis

That compiles for me. I am running 2.050 on linux. As a work-around try "S s2 = S(3)", failing that then try adding a constructor that accepts an int (opAssign is only used during assignment, not construction).

Does not with dmd 2.049 on (ubuntu) Linux. If it's solved in 2.050, then le= t us let down.
 As a work-around try "S=20
 s2 =3D S(3)", failing that then try adding a constructor that accepts an =
int=20
 (opAssign is only used during assignment, not construction).
;-) Sure, but this bypasses opAssign and assigns .value directly, I guess. = What do you think? Denis -- -- -- -- -- -- -- vit esse estrany =E2=98=A3 spir.wikidot.com

Actually this is my bad, I forgot to add the unittest switch :-P. Still happens in 2.050.

 s2 = S(3)", failing that then try adding a constructor that accepts an

Yes it will. AFAIK that is how it is supposed to work, opAssign is used for assignment to existing variables and the constructor or initialisation is used when creating it. So even if the above compiled you wouldn't get your call to opAssign in "S s2 = 3".
