http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9454 Summary: Struct invariant call on whole-struct assignements? Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com ReportedBy: bearophile_hugs eml.cc See the thread: http://forum.dlang.org/thread/vqoyehpcepobnzyolzfc forum.dlang.org That is about the article: http://electronicdesign.com/contributing-technical-experts/contract-driven-programming-takes-specification-beyond-stone-age It contains: << In Ada 2012, predicates on a type (one particular type of invariant) are checked on parameter passing and assignment. So if we have Code 4, there will be a check failure on the assignment, since the predicate is not true. No check is generated on individual field modifications, though, so Code 5 does not raise an exception.http://electronicdesign.com/site-files/electronicdesign.com/files/uploads/2013/02/0307RequiemCode4.gif http://electronicdesign.com/site-files/electronicdesign.com/files/uploads/2013/02/0307RequiemCode5.gif This D code doesn't asserts (unlike equivalent in Ada2011): struct Foo { int x = 200; invariant() { assert(x > 100); } } void main() { auto f = Foo(10); } So maybe it's a good to introduce in D as in Ada a call to the invariant when the whole struct is assigned. Another case: << Although the assignment to the V fields breaks the invariant [figure 5], no exception is raised on these two statements. Thankfully, as soon as a call using V as a parameter is done, a subtype check will occur and the inconsistency will be pointed out. Hopefully, this will not be too far from the introduction of the problem.Currently D doesn't call the invariant even in that second case too: struct Foo { int x = 200; invariant() { assert(x > 100); } } void bar(Foo f) {} void main() { auto f = Foo(10); bar(f); } -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9454 Discussion thread: http://forum.dlang.org/thread/vqoyehpcepobnzyolzfc forum.dlang.org This is a similar issue: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=519 They are very similar, the test case from Issue 519 uses a new: class Foo { invariant() { assert (false); } } void main() { Foo foo = new Foo(); } While in Issue 9454 (just like in that Ada code) there is no new: struct Foo { int x = 200; invariant() { assert(x > 100); } } void main() { auto f = Foo(10); } -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
