Note however that it only fails when declaring, not when assigning. The
following works properly:

-----
import std.conv;
import std.typecons;

class Point
{
    this(int x, int y)
    {
        this.x = x;
        this.y = y;
    }

    int x;
    int y;
}

void main()
{
    auto p1 = scoped!Point(1, 2);
    assert(p1.x == 1, p1.x.text);  // ok
    assert(p1.y == 2, p1.y.text);  // ok

    Point p2 = p1;
    assert(p2.x == 1, p2.x.text);  // ok
    assert(p2.y == 2, p2.y.text);  // ok
}

I see now what's going on, the internal voldemort type `static struct Scoped` has a dtor, and it is called because this struct is thrown away when you just want to assign the reference to the object at the call site. So the bug report itself is invalid, however this should really be documented because it's very hard to spot what went wrong. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

We should disable the implicit conversion from Scoped to Point. I think we can use Proxy mixin instead of alias this for the purpose. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

Maybe.. but I have a feeling this would break code. E.g.: void callback(scoped Event event) { } auto event = scoped!Event(...); callback(event); // implicit, but OK Now if the 'scope' storage class actually did something useful in a parameter list, then the above would also be safe. I suppose you want this to become: callback(cast(Event)event); I could live with that, but I'm not sure if any code for other people would break. I hear relatively little about people using scoped (most people seem to use emplace instead). -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
