           Summary: Possibly spurious (did you forget a [] ?) error
                    message
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: rejects-valid
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: bearophile_hugs eml.cc



This could be a problem in DMD and one related but different in Phobos.

This used to work:


import std.algorithm: reduce;
struct Foo { int x, y; }
void main() {
    Foo[] data = [{10, 20}, {30, 40}];
    reduce!((a, b) => a[] += [b.x, b.y][])([0, 0], data);
}


Now it gives (dmd 2.064beta1):

test.d(5): Error: invalid array operation a[] += [b.x, b.y] (did you forget a
[] ?)
...\dmd2\src\phobos\std\algorithm.d(763): Error: template instance
test.main.__lambda1!(int[], Foo) error instantiating
test.d(5):        instantiated from here: reduce!(int[], Foo[])
test.d(5): Error: template instance test.main.reduce!((a, b) => a[] += [b.x,
b.y][]).reduce!(int[], Foo[]) error instantiating



Expanding the lambda doesn't fully solve the problem (now compiling with
"-wi"):

import std.algorithm: reduce;
struct Foo { int x, y; }
void main() {
    Foo[] data = [{10, 20}, {30, 40}];
    reduce!((a, b) { int[2] c = [b.x, b.y];
                     a[] += c[];
                     return c;})([0, 0], data);
}


Gives:

...\dmd2\src\phobos\std\algorithm.d(763): Warning: explicit slice assignment
result = (__lambda1(result, front(_param_1)))[] is better than result =
__lambda1(result, front(_param_1))

W.r.t. diagnostics, I've ran into the following when compiling msgpack-d:

-----
C:\dmd-git\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\typecons.d(453): Warning:
explicit element-wise assign
ment (this._expand_field_3)[] = (another._expand_field_3)[] is better than
this._expand_field_3 = anoth
er._expand_field_3
C:\dmd-git\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\typecons.d(453): Warning:
explicit element-wise assign
ment (this._expand_field_4)[] = (another._expand_field_4)[] is better than
this._expand_field_4 = anoth
er._expand_field_4
-----

It's again an odd diagnostic inside of Phobos. The issue and compile flags are
reported here:

This is a duplicate issue of bug 10684. I'll increased importance of the issue.

This is a regression caused by implementing issue 7444.

Then I have renamed and modified this issue, now it's just about the Phobos
warning problem.

I think the enh 7444 may not be usable in generic code. Maybe we need to
disable 7444 for 2.064 release...

PR to disable the feature that had proposed and implemented by issue 7444.

Do you plan in restoring 7444 for 2.065? Do you have ideas regarding how to fix
this situation and save the 7444?

If the code is in template instance, compiler can stop warning. It would save
the generic code case in this issue.

However, currently I have no idea for issue 11244.
