By the way, thanks *heaps* for doing all this work Walter! 

I know from bitter experience that there is almost nothing more draining
than working one's way through an enormous bug list. It never seems to
shrink, only grow with each new release ;-) And doing it by yourself means
that its hard to bitch about it to a colleague.

Derek, you make me feel guilty while submitting bug reports and corner cases. ;)

90% of the work I do is just bug fixes. I've been doing it for a long time,
it comes with the territory <g>. The upside of it, though, is every fixed
bug goes into the test suite. Over time, the test suite becomes a formidable
asset.

You are extremely lucky then.
90% means that you have almost 100% of code used in final
products.

I am considering a month with 50% of efforts ending up
in something umm... final, real as a good one.

Thanks a lot, Walter.

Andrew.

Cool but it is crashing all the time on some errors... I can't find the 
pattern yet...

Looks to me that wrong function arguments are causing it...

I can confirm this. It's the only crash I've encountered. It happens 
with constructors too, for example...

class MyClass
{
	this(int arg)
	{
	}
}

MyClass c = new MyClass(); // Crash, arg missing.
MyClass d = new MyClass(new OtherClass()); // Crash, type differs.
