Summary: Error in doc on implicit conversion between pointer and
array
Product: D
Version: 1.007
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: DMD
AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
ReportedBy: henrik harmsen.se
In the documentation on arrays, under "usage" is mentioned this sequence:
int* p;
int[3] s;
p = s; // p points to the first element of the array s.
However, this causes the following message from the compiler:
"cannot implicitly convert expression (s) of type int[3] to int*."
It seems the documentation needs to be updated. I only stumbled on one of the
cases (the above) but there might be more cases that need revisit.

This bug is filed against a D1 version, so surely the URL given should be to
the D1 docs. Also correcting platform and component.

Marking with patch, since this fix is trivial:
change
p = q;
p = s;
p = a;
to
p = q;
p = s.ptr;
p = a.ptr;

I honestly think it'd take longer for Walter to look at, download and apply a
'real patch' than for him to open arrays.dd and add the .ptr to lines 148/149
manually.

Fixed in phobos commit 1663. Don't know how this one stuck around for so long.
