           Summary: Char array is turned into string expression during
                    constant folding
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD

struct DChars
{
    dchar foo()
    {
        return ary[0];
    }

    dchar[] ary;
}

DChars get()
{
    DChars s;
    s.ary ~= 'H';
    s.ary ~= 'e';
    return s;
}

enum dchars = get().foo();
----

Which will bark:
Error: cannot cast a read-only string literal to mutable in CTFE

Cat in constfold.c turns null ~ char into a string expression
even though the type of null is not a string but a char array.

Probably the same issue:
---
char[] f() {
    char[] buff = new char[1];
    buff[0] = 0; // works
    buff.ptr[0] = 0; // works
    *(&buff[0]) = 0; // works
    char* t = &buff[0]; *t = 0;   // error
    foreach(ref el; buff) el = 0; // error
    return buff; 
} 

static assert(f() == "\0");
---
Where `error` means: `Error: cannot cast a read-only string literal to mutable
in CTFE`

(In reply to comment #1)

 Probably the same issue:


Nope, completely different.
