The following crashes dmd.

Object function(int node) ObjectFactory;

private ObjectFactory[char[]] factoryTable;


template RegisterClassFactory(T : Object)
{
void RegisterClassFactory()
{
factoryTable[T.classinfo.name] = T.Factory;
}
}


class Foo
{
public // Interface
{
this(char[] text)
{
}
}

static Foo Factory(int root)
{
}
}


static this()
{
RegisterClassFactory!(Foo)();
}

Actually this is easier to reproduce.  This crashes
dmd:

Object function(int node) ObjectFactory;

private ObjectFactory[char[]] factoryTable;

   alias Object function(int node) ObjectFactory;
   private ObjectFactory[char[]] factoryTable;

or

   Object function(int node) ObjectFactory;
   private typeof(ObjectFactory)[char[]] factoryTable;

Obviously it shouldn't crash in any case, but you give no indication whether you realised you were supplying bad code.

Thanks. I had already figured it out but it's good of you to point out my error.
