This code:

[code]
import std.stdio;

struct Vec2(T) {
public:
    T x;
    T y;

    this(T x, T y) {

    }
}

alias Vec2f = Vec2!(float);

class Foo {
public:
    static Foo make(float i, ref const Vec2f a) {
        return new Foo();
    }

    static Foo make(float i, const Vec2f a) {
        return Foo.make(i, a);
    }
}

void main() {
    Foo f = Foo.make(42, Vec2f(4, 2));
}
[/code]

prints:

Error: (Vec2!(float) __ctmp1173 = _D4c42511__T4Vec2TfZ4Vec26__initZ;
, __ctmp1173).this(4F, 2F) is not an lvalue

But IMO it should compile.
Also this code:

[code]
import std.stdio;

struct Rect(T) {
private:
    T x, y, w, h;

public:
    this(T x, T y, T w, T h) {

    }
}

alias FloatRect = Rect!(float);

class A { }
class B : A { }

class C {
public:
    this(A a, ref const FloatRect sr) {

    }

    this(A a, const FloatRect sr) {
        this(a, sr);
    }
}

void main() {
    // new C(new A(), FloatRect(0, 1, 2, 3)); // works
    new C(new B(), FloatRect(0, 1, 2, 3));
}
[/code]

seems to have the same problem. It prints:

Error: (Rect!(float) __ctmp1173 = _D4c84111__T4RectTfZ4Rect6__initZ;
, __ctmp1173).this(0F, 1F, 2F, 3F) is not an lvalue

Reduced (Error: S() is not an lvalue)

import std.stdio;

struct S {}

void foo(float f, ref const S s)
{
    writeln("const");
}

void foo(float f, const S s)
{
    writeln("ref const");
}

void main()
{
    foo(1, S()); // 1f fixes code and calls ref const version
}


If overloaded functions have several parameters, one of which is const-qualified used-defined type and functions differer only in refness of that parameter, supplying implicitly convertible arguments (like int to float) to other parameters breaks compiler.

Passing 1f results in calling ref const version which contradicts to recent revertion of passing struct literals by ref (however that was without const). It is unclear what should happen in presence of const.

This also fails.

Error: A() is not an lvalue

[code]
import std.stdio;

struct A { }

void foo(const A a, float r) {

}

void foo(ref A a, float r) {

}

void main()
{
    foo(A(), 12);
}
[/code]

_That_ is strange.

The problem isn't the presence of const.
This code fails, also:

[code]
import std.stdio;

struct S {}

void foo(float f, ref S s)
{
   writeln("ref");
}

void foo(float f, S s)
{
   writeln("without ref");
}

void main()
{
    S s;
       foo(1, s); // works fine. Print: ref
    //foo(1, S()); // Fails with: Error: S() is not an lvalue
}
[/code]

IMO the problem is, that the compiler cannot convert 1 (int) to 1f (float).
He found the correct match: foo(float f, S s).
But the compiler could not convert int to float, so he tried another "match",
which is wrong because S() is not an lvalue.
That recognize the compiler and print an error. But IMO he should convert int
to float by his first match, which was the only correct match.
I believe the problem comes from the change that structs aren't handled as
lvalues anymore. Something of the old behaviour interfere with the new
behaviour.

This is a regression from 2.061.
