           Summary: DMD compile ambiguous code or doesn’t even warn
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody@puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: dimitri.sabadie@gmail.com

Description:
Here’s a little snippet D code:

import std.stdio : writefln;

abstract class A {
    int a;
}

class B : A {
    this(int a) {
        a = a;
    }
}

int main() {
    auto b = new B(314);

    writefln("value: %d", b.a);
    return 0;
}

Compiling it with:
    dmd -debug -w -wi auto_aff.d

DMD fails to figure out the auto-affectation. The fact that it either: 1. compiles and has an obviously but hard to find incorrect behavior ; 2. compiles and segfault if `a' is a class or struct for instance.

If we go with in int a, DMD figures it out. So, I think a warning should be appreciated for that behavior.

In the future please do not mark bugs as x86_64 and OS-specific if they bugs are not tied specifically to those systems.
