digitalmars.D - D2 module(system) or module(safe)?

reply Leandro Lucarella <llucax gmail.com> writes:
D 2.021 changelog says:
Added -safe switch and module(system) Identifier; syntax.

But documentation[1] says:

Safe Modules

Safe modules are modules marked as safe by the (safe) appearing in the
ModuleDeclaration. Safe modules are assumed to correctly implement a safe
memory model, and are not checked by the compiler for such even if
directed to.


Trying an example using module (safe) I get:
test.d(2): (safe) expected, not safe

=/

module (system) works, so I guess the documentation is just outdated, as
well as the compiler error message.

Is the -safe flag supposed to work? How?

I assume you are right, for information on -safe see SafeD http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/safed.html

Yes, I read that document, but what I mean is that I've created a simple test: int* x = cast(int*) 9283; And it compiles without warnings or errors, with or without module (system). That doesn't looks safe in terms of memory to me ;-) -- Leandro Lucarella (luca) | Blog colectivo: http://www.mazziblog.com.ar/blog/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACCIDENTE FATAL EN FLORES, MUEREN DOS PERSONAS Y UN BOLIVIANO -- Crónica TV

Almost none of the checks are implemented, I just put the scaffolding in.

The doc is outdated. I'll fix it.

Should I fill a bug for the compiler error message? -- Leandro Lucarella (luca) | Blog colectivo: http://www.mazziblog.com.ar/blog/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINALMENTE EL CABALLITO FABIAN VA A PASAR UNA BUENA NAVIDAD -- Crónica TV

I've already fixed it in the source code, so no need.
