 Might as well rename it to something else. It's called "nothrow", but
 it can actually throw a Throwable, but not an Exception. Quite an odd
 naming if you ask me.



It can't throw a Throwable, just an error! Maybe we should introduce a 
maybe keyword!

void myFunc() pure  maybe !throw  maybe !const;

Maybe  maybe needs to be negateable too...

void myFunc() ! maybe pure  maybe !throw  maybe !const;

 Well now I'm confused. According to TDPL p307:

 "nothrow promises that the function won't throw an Exception. The
 function is still allowed to throw the graver Throwable class."

 And yet this is an error:

 nothrow void foo() {
      throw new Throwable("");
 }
 void main() { }

 test.d(6): Error: object.Throwable is thrown but not caught
 test.d(4): Error: function test.foo 'foo' is nothrow yet may throw

 So who is the outlier here?



That sounds like an error in TDPL. AFAIK nothrow means "may only throw 
Error".

 But Error is a subclass of Throwable.



A nothrow function cannot throw anything derived from Exception. It _can_ 
throw types derived from Error. Normally, no one should be using exception 
types which aren't derived from Exception or Error. So, this should be a 
complete non-issue.

It looks like TDPL lists Throwable as throwable in nothrow functions (so, 
basically any Throwable which is _not_ derived from Exception), whereas the 
compiler specifically makes Error throwable but disallows throwing Throwable.

Honestly, it probably doesn't really matter which it is. Certainly, it won't 
matter in good code, since I'm pretty sure there's no valid reason for 
throwing anything which is not derived from Exception or Error.

But clearly TDPL and the compiler need to be brought in line with one another 
(either by changing TDPL or changing the compiler). I'd be inclined to go with 
TDPL on this one, but I don't see how it matters all that much, since it
shouldn't impact any real world code either way.

I.e. nothrow specifically lets you throw anything deriving from Error, 
nothing else. Anywhere else, you can throw whatever derives from Throwable.

 This is not a problem on OS X. I'm building DMD from source, so I can't

 print?

 David



 /usr/bin/dmd: data



 Cause found resolution still out of reach. The problem is that Apple
 changed the way they created aliases for executables in the Lion. I
 thought I found the resolution to the problem
 (put an alias into .bash_profile for dmd) but I just ran into this:

 $ dmd pe9
 object.d: Error: module object is in file 'object.d' which cannot be read
 import path[0] = /usr/share/dmd/bin/../../src/phobos
 import path[1] = /usr/share/dmd/bin/../../src/druntime/import



That's because you were changing the directory structure. You can delete 
"linux", "windows", etc if you want (but you don't have to). But just leave 
the "osx" directory as it is. There's no need to move/rename it.

You *can* fix your problem by adjusting the paths in dmd.conf (in the same 
dir as the exectable file), but there's really no point in bothering to do 
it that way.

78 lines of template instantiation error spam
on code that worked perfectly on 2.058 :(

Including such gems as:

.../phobos/std/conv.d(244): Error: template std.conv.toImpl does 
not match any function template declaration

and

.../phobos/std/conv.d(244): Error: template std.conv.toImpl 
matches more than one template declaration, 
/home/me/d/dmd2/linux/bin32/../../src/phobos/std/conv.d(1034):toImpl(T,S) 
if (!isImplicitlyConvertible!(S,T) && is(S == enum) && 
isSomeString!(T)) and 
/home/me/d/dmd2/linux/bin32/../../src/phobos/std/conv.d(1155):toImpl(T,S) 
if (isIntegral!(S) && isSigned!(S) && isSomeString!(T))

and

.../phobos/std/conv.d(244): Error: template std.conv.toImpl does 
not match any function template declaration


They all seem to be enum <-> string related.

std.conv rox, but it is one very fragile baby :(

It breaks often, and is always a pain to figure out why.

Sorry about that, but the beta has been out for a week and a half, and we fixed 
every reported regression since 2.058.

The best I can suggest is to file a bug report and we'll try to figure out what 
went wrong.

 I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't use the betas though!



Sure, regressions can happen, but they only get found if there are already 
tests which catch them (in which case, they generally don't get checked in) or 
if people compile their code with the latest head or with the betas and then 
report them. The primary purpose of the betas is to get the newest compiler 
and library implementations tested on 3rd party projects in order to catch 
regressions. If not enough people pay attention to the betas, then they won't 
be tested on much code, and we won't catch the regressions.

The only way that a regression that your code is going to be hit by is going 
to be caught in beta if you don't participate is if someone else who _does_ 
participate happens to hit it in their code. If you want to ensure that all of 
your code always compiles with each new release, then participate in the 
betas. We try and catch all of the regressions, but even with solid test 
suites and what beta participation we do get, we can't always catch 
everything.

 You can still use the zip, that includes all platforms.



Truth be told, I'm too experienced on the MAC. Only had it
for about a month so I haven't learned to much about it yet.
I was relying on the package. Thanks to your suggestion though,
I took the opportunity to try and learn. Got everything installed.

1) removed /usr/share/dmd

2) unzipped dmd.2.059.dmg to /usr/share/

3) removed /usr/share/dmd/freebsd, /usr/share/dmd/linux,
and /usr/share/dmd/windows

4) moved contents of /usr/share/dmd/osx to /usr/share/dmd

5) removed empty folder /usr/share/dmd/osx

6) created new aliases for dmd, dmd.conf, dumpobj, and obj2asm
in /usr/bin

7) tried compiling but received error message:
-bash: /usr/bin/dmd: cannot execute binary file

8) compares attributes of new executables with newly inserted
files with other executables in /usr/bin and noticed a few
differences.

9) Spent the last two hours trying to figure out how to resolve
but cannot.

Files in /usr/bin have no extended attribute ( ), all belong to
root, and are in the wheel group. So I tried to follow suit.
With the exception of being able to get rid of the extended
attribute, everything else is the same. To get rid of the  
I tried sudo xattr -d /usr/share/dmd/bin/dmd and
sudo xattr -d /usr/bin/dmd but neither worked.

Help? Please!?!

This is not an attribute problem. I've figured out how to use
xattr properly and removed all extended properties from
all dmd files and folders. After which I tried to launch dmd
but still run into the same problem:

That could be the case but I've only used the contents of the osx

 That's because you were changing the directory structure. You 
 can delete
 "linux", "windows", etc if you want (but you don't have to). 
 But just leave
 the "osx" directory as it is. There's no need to move/rename it.

 You *can* fix your problem by adjusting the paths in dmd.conf 
 (in the same
 dir as the exectable file), but there's really no point in 
 bothering to do
 it that way.



Thanks... That does the trick. I was trying to mirror the 
structure
of the previous instillation (left by the 2.058.dmg package). 
Probably
should have read the .conf file prior to touching anything but I
wasn't yet aware of it's purpose.

Again, thank you much.
