digitalmars.D.learn - Why does is the RandomAccessInfinite interface not a valid

reply D Lark <dlark example.com> writes:
The following assertion fails:
```dlang
assert(isRandomAccessRange!(RandomAccessInfinite!int));
```
Whereas this one passes:
```dlang
assert(isRandomAccessRange!(RandomAccessFinite!int));
```

I have compiled this using dmd v2.098.0.

Can someone please tell me if this is expected behaviour and what 
the reasoning is behind this choice?

Looks like a bug. I've filed a report on the D issue tracker:

Thanks and thanks for the speedy fix. Being new to D, I could not 
tell if it was some design choice imposed by "infiniteness".

Do you know if there's a nightly version I can specify to use 
your fix?

Are you inheriting from `RandomAccessInfinite`? Then you can 
probably add
```d
static if (__VERSION__ < 2099)
     enum bool empty = false;
```
to make it work.
