https://dlang.org/changelog/2.100.0.html#deprecation_delete My code: ```D import std.stdio; class HttpClient { string get(string url) { return ""; } string delete(string url) { return ""; } } void main() { auto http = new HttpClient; string content = http.get("https://forum.dlang.org/group/general"); string content = http.delete("https://forum.dlang.org/newpost/general?"); } ``` error message ```bash % dub build --compiler=dmd Performing "debug" build using dmd for x86_64. test ~master: building configuration "application"... source/app.d(10,9): Error: no identifier for declarator `string` source/app.d(10,9): Error: declaration expected, not `delete` source/app.d(14,1): Error: unmatched closing brace dmd failed with exit code 1. ``` I wonder when I can use it. Because this will cause a software naming problem.

Because this will cause a software naming problem.Considering the deprecation period has ended then IMO it should be able to be used as an identifier. I would consider this a bug.

I would consider this a bug.Starting with this release, using the delete *keyword* will result ina *compiler error*. It's still a keyword according to that. I'm assuming a future release will remove the error, and then you can use it as a symbol. -Steve
