[Issue 320] New: Delegates should be allowed as foreach aggregates

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=320 Summary: Delegates should be allowed as foreach aggregates Product: D Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: DMD AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com ReportedBy: ibisbasenji@gmail.com Seeing as how foreach works on objects by calling a method with a certain signature, it should be feasible to allow delegates with that same signature as the aggregate. This would provide a clear selective iteration concept, and with the use of delegate literals and delegates to nested functions, could possibly lead to a number of new design patterns. --
