digitalmars.D.learn - Struct initialization syntax

reply Azi Hassan <azi.hassan live.fr> writes:
The D tour for structs uses a syntax similar to that of C++ in 
order to initialize a Person struct : Person p(30, 180). Is this 
syntax supported in D ? Running that part of the code neither 
works on the playground nor on my machine (dmd v2.076.0).

You're probably looking for this syntax: auto p = Person(30, 180); T -- Never step over a puddle, always step around it. Chances are that whatever made it is still dripping.

looks like a bug in the 3rd example.

Indeed. Here's a fix: https://github.com/dlang-tour/english/pull/230 T -- Not all rumours are as misleading as this one.

That's what I was wondering about, thanks.
