Running this hangs the compiler.

The rest of the files are available on DSource- it's the SVN Head version.

There are three slightly unusual things about this file:

a) it uses the operator overload opShl(), and also alias's those as "put"
(which is subsequently referenced from within the file).
b) it uses an anonymous struct as part of a union (see union Encoder)
c) It also happens to be an abstract class, with toString() being an
abstract method.

I wonder if (c) is the culprit? It is kinda' weird, and should probably change. AbstractReader.d is of a similar nature.

Just checked-in a change for (c) that might alleviate the problem ...

Sorry, no - it still just hangs:

gdc -c -fversion=Posix -fversion=Mango -o mango/io/AbstractWriter.o mango/io/AbstractWriter.d

Latest Mango update:

Ach!  :-)

Any suggestions? Surely it can't be the union?

This compiler bug is triggered by classes/interfaces that refer to each other.  I think it's IWriter and IWritable in this case.

David

Yes, they do ~ unfortunately.  Is it something you can fix (in the compiler) reasonably easily? I can't readily break the co-dependency in the files under question ...

Yes, I should have a fix for this out soon.
