digitalmars.D.bugs - [Issue 10649] New: immutable/const aggregate definitions not consistent

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10649

           Summary: immutable/const aggregate definitions not consistent
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: public dicebot.lv



immutable struct A
{
    struct B
    {
        int x;
    }

    int x;
    static int y;
}

void main()
{
    A.y = 42; // works
    A a;
    // a.x = 42; // fails
    A.B b;
    b.x = 42; // works
}

-------------------------------------

Applying const/immutable qualifier to aggregate definition propagates it only
to fields and methods of struct/class. static fields and nested definitions are
left mutable which is extremely confusing and inconsistent with usual
transitivity.
