           Summary: Compile time assertion error with associative arrays
                    of class types

          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD

Created an attachment (id=518)
The simple example that shows the error.

I have attached two files, both simple code illustrating the error I've run into. In the testAssociativeArrayFails.d file, there is a foreach block that iterates through an associative array. If that foreach block is removed, the file compiles fine. The error is not really meaningful and I imagine the assertion errors in the compiler should not happen.

To help show what is causing the bug, I wrote the same sample class without using a Variant internally in my class and everything works fantastically. I put a shitload of time trying to figure out the error in a much more complicated program - this error just started when I upgraded to the newest version of DMD 2.x. I hope you can make use of my example code.


When I run the attached files, this is the output:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The simple example that doesn't fail because I removed the use of the variant
module.

Reduced test case shows it's very silly. Obviously it's a name lookup problem.

void main()
{
    int AssociativeArray;
    int[int] foo;
    foreach (x; foo)    {    }
}

FYI - For anyone that needs to work around this temporarily, just copy the std.variant module to a different module location. Change the module declaration at the top to match the new location and replace the text "AssociativeArray" with another name (be careful not to replace "isAssociativeArray"). Worked for me - at least until a new build is released.

PATCH: Instead of trying to instantiate AssociativeArray, do .AssociativeArray instead.
