Just for the record, the extra parentheses are not needed:

Good to know. I tested it with basic values and this fails:

@"hello" int i;

@3 inj j;

Worth a bug report?

As a complement, multiple @'s are possible:

@("hello") @(3) int j;

And another complement:

struct S {}

@S S s; is possible.

But

@int S s;

is not

So user-defined types are OK, but not basic types. Looks like a parsing/grammar problem for me, since attribute tuple sure should be able to store built-in types.

Another bug report?
