           Summary: undefined reference to package function called from an
                    interface
           Product: D
           Version: 1.045
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: link-failure
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: diggory.hardy gmail.com


When attempting to call a function with package protection level from an
interface, I get an undefined reference error.


Code:

/** Compiler error - calling a package interface function.
 */
module packageFunc;

interface I {
    package void iPack();
}
class A : I {
    package void iPack() {}
}

void main () {
    A a = new A;
    I i = a;
    i.iPack;    // causes an undefined reference
    (cast(A) i).iPack;  // a workaround
}


The linker error:
# dmd packageFunc.d
packageFunc.o: In function `_Dmain':
packageFunc.d:(.text._Dmain+0x22): undefined reference to
`_D11packageFunc1I5iPackMFZv'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1


Possibly similar to bug 2894.

This just bit me when including package protection to a lot of class functions
in order to implement invariant tests (where package protection is the only
applicable type of protection). I presume it's a bug; haven't tested if it's
also the case with dmd 2.0 or other compilers yet. Any idea if it would be
simple to fix?

It shouldn't be platform specific anyway, but thanks for confirming it also
affects you.

Sorry, I guess this should have been linked to bug 3258.
