digitalmars.D.bugs - [Issue 199] New: Label causes scope to collapse into parent

           Summary: Label causes scope to collapse into parent
           Product: D
           Version: 0.160
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: ericanderton yahoo.com


When using a label directly before an anonymous scope (set of curly brackets),
it causes the anonymous scope to behave as though its contents are declared in
the parent scope directly.  This causes variable names to collide should they
share the same name between child and parent:

void main(){
        uint foo;
        x:              
        {
                uint foo;
        }
}

test.d(5): declaration test.main.foo is already defined

Adding '{}' immediately after the label seems to be a viable workaround.

DMD 0.161 disallows shadowing of local vars.  So this is now a non-issue.

The scope is still being collapsed.

yeah, 1.0 doesn't allow shadowing of local var. it's not an issue anymore. and
don't expect walter would fix the old revision

David, I appreciate your trying to help, but this bug is NOT fixed.  The
scope_13_A test case that Thomas added is still failing.  You can see that
either by trying it yourself (which I just did), or looking at the test results
here:

On the basis of what you say, the compiler is behaving according to the spec,
which states

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/statement.html#LabeledStatement
LabelledStatement:
    Identifier ':' NoScopeStatement

I'd noticed it before.  But since this bit of the spec is presumably not what
was intended, I'm leaving this issue open.  If there's any temptation to hit
the INVALID button, it should be changed to an enhancement request instead.

Since the compiler is behaving according to spec, I don't want to change this
because it could break existing code, and there doesn't seem to be a compelling
reason to do so.
