https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17281 Issue ID: 17281 Summary: std.format.format should not allow nonsensical format specifiers Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: phobos Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: hsteoh quickfur.ath.cx Currently, the documentation for std.format.format states that specifiers consist of '%' followed by optional Position, optional Flags, optional Width, optional Precision, and finally the format character. However, the actual implementation is far more lax, and allows nonsensical specifiers such as the following: ------ import std.stdio; void main() { } ------ The implementation ought to be cleaned up to reject such nonsensical format strings. --
