https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21811 Issue ID: 21811 Summary: Unable to use IfCondition as expression in while statement Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: regression Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nobody@puremagic.com Reporter: mrjnewt@gmail.com According to the language spec, a while loop takes an IfCondition as its expression. IfConditions allow introducing a variable and assigning it but this does not actually parse in the context of a WhileStatement. The documentation for the WhileStatement explicitly mentions introducing a variable with auto as subpoint #3.
