digitalmars.D.bugs - Phobos missing/wrong module declarations.

reply AJG <AJG_member pathlink.com> writes:
Hi,

The following modules have missing module declarations:

std.c.math;
std.c.stddef;

The following module has an incorrect module declaration:

std.uni;

Could they please be added/fixed for the next release?

---------

Also, phobos won't build under -w. In fact, it reports an enourmous number of
warnings. Shouldn't it compile without warnings?


Thanks,
--AJG.

Sure, no problem.

Write correct code then ;-)

Welcome to a philosophical debate. On one hand the "if the code does it's  
job it's _correct_" camp, on the other the "code must be 100%  
syntactically and conceptually perfect to be _correct_". I'm somewhere in  
between.

And to add yet another dimension, there's the maintainability line. My take
is that if the compiler can detect that a warning is required, then the
chances are that it's also a potentially expensive area to maintain. That
is, it will tend to attract mistakes over time. Things that work ("does
it's job correct(ly)" but are also fragile/delicate, might be worth the
effort to add framework to strengthen it. And I think that warnings tend to
highlight the fragile sections of ones code.

The code isn't wrong. The warnings reflect a different set ideas on how to
write code.

Of course it does - the right way and the wrong way ;-)
