https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20810 Issue ID: 20810 Summary: Freshly built DMD fails to read config file Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Windows Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: andrej.mitrovich gmail.com $ C:\dev\dmd\src>rdmd build.d -v ..\generated\windows\release\64\dmd.exe It tries to get the canonical name of this path: C:\dev\dmd\generated\windows\release\64\sc.ini But it fails at this assertion:core.exception.AssertError dmd\root\filename.d(1011): Assertion failureThis assert fails: assert(length == fullPathLength); I've read the docs here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-getfullpathnamew It seems on the second call the count will actually not include the null character, specifically this note from MSDN:Note Although the return value in this case is a length that includes the terminating null character, the return value on success does not include the terminating null character in the count.I'll submit a PR. --
