test.d(15): cannot implicitly convert int to test


struct test
{
    bit x;
    bit opIndexAssign(bit v, uint i)
    {
        return x = v;
    }
    void ex()
    {
        this[0] = true; // oops
    }
}

The error does not manifest if test is a class.

There aren't 15 lines in your code.  So we have yet another line numbering bug?

I think it's an issue with this in struct actually.

In a struct, this means the address of the current object.  Don't ask me why.

	(*this)[0] = true;

should work.

No. I just sliced the relevant piece of the code to make the case shorter, and inserted a comment on the interesting line. I didn't figure this was relevant

module test;

...

void main
{
}

Thanks. Excuse the noise. :-)
