           Summary: Shared class object comparison is not yet well defined
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: spec
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: k.hara.pg gmail.com



With this class definition,

class C
{
    static int count;
    override bool opEquals(Object rhs)
    {
        ++count;
        return true;
    }
}

Mutable object comparison calls C.opEquals once. This is expected.

    C.count = 0;
    auto mc1 = new C;
    auto mc2 = new C;
    assert(mc1 == mc2);
    assert(C.count == 1);

But, in shared object comparison,

    C.count = 0;
    auto sc1 = new shared C;
    auto sc2 = new shared C;
    assert(sc1 == sc2);  // compiles... why?
    assert(C.count == 1);

Mutable opEquals is still called. This is bad hehavior.

Moreover, there is another inconsistency.

    auto so1 = new shared Object;
    auto so2 = new shared Object;
    assert(so1 == so2); // fail to compile

If you directly compare shared Object class, it fails to compile correctly.
