digitalmars.D - Immutable

This works now in D2!

import std.stdio;
void main() {
    immutable(char)[] bar;
    writefln("bar is ", typeof(bar).stringof);
}

But it still prints "bar is invariant(char)[]".

Will the internal names change too in the next release?

I think it's a bug, should be fixed easily.

Well, immutable doesn't appear anywhere in the Phobos source code yet either. So rather than a bug, I was thinking it was part of a K-part plan to phase in immutable and phase out invariant. Just curious what that plan was. My other question is relevant to that too -- will class invariants return to "invariant { ... }" at some stage in that plan (although I think I got old syntax vs new syntax mixed up in that post -- I have very rarely used class invariants). --bb

I also noticed inconsistent syntax of unittest and invariant: they have the same nature but different syntax; even wanted to post bug...
