https://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=11782 Summary: format pointer to range prints range Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Phobos AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com ReportedBy: monarchdodra gmail.com //---- import std.string; void main() { auto a = iota(0, 10); auto p = &a; writefln("%s", a); writefln("%s", p); } //---- [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] //---- This is not documented behavior. The documented behavior is simply: "Pointers are formatted as hex integers." The current behavior (pointer to ranges prints the range) makes no sense to me, and I don't see why a pointer to such a type would get a special treatment. I think this behavior is wrong, and should be removed to simply treat the pointer as a pointer. -- Configure issuemail: https://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

https://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=11782Also (but off topic here), while the slicing operator is still supported, the slice-able *trait* becomes lost, as the returned type (R) won't match the used type (R*). -- Configure issuemail: https://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------This is not documented behavior.
