July 20, 2007 static assert "argument has no parameters" | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
I made some changes to my program, and suddenly I am getting this error: 11:13:58.44>build -I..;c:\dmd\import -version=gui -version=Phobos OpenProjs.d c:\dmd\src\phobos\std\traits.d(72): static assert "argument has no parameters" I could probably do some undo's and get it back to where it compiles, but, just wanted to let you know about this one. This is using dmd version, 11:14:07.81>dmd Digital Mars D Compiler v1.018 Copyright (c) 1999-2007 by Digital Mars written by Walter Bright Documentation: http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/index.html Any thoughts? |

BTW static assert errors are D's way of letting code define it's own errors. |

More likely it's being used with a function that doesn't take parameters, like the error message stated. ParameterTypeTuple could return an empty tuple in that case but doesn't. I've submitted a patch that would fix the issue, but it hasn't been accepted.
On the other hand, my patch would return an empty tuple if you gave it an integer, a string, a struct, a wedge of cheese....so maybe that's not the most reliable answer.
ReturnType is in a similar situation; give it a void function and it'll static assert you. Of course, you generally do need to have a special case for void functions, but in that case we would want a separate IsNotVoid template.
