           Summary: bool value conversions from "false" and "true" are
                    missing
           Product: D
           Version: 2.029
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Phobos
        AssignedTo: nobody@puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: acehreli@yahoo.com


false and true are outputted as "false" and "true". It is natural to have the opposite conversions as well. The following program outputs

  Segmentation fault

when "false" is sent to its standard input:

  import std.cstream;

  void main()
  {
      bool b;
      din.readf(&b);
  }

There doesn't seem to be any conversion from "false" and "true" to bool anywhere in Phobos.

FYI, to() and parse() can now convert from string to bool:

Since std.stream is (about to be?) deprecated, it's probably not worth fixing
the issue with std.stream.Stream.readf().

I consider this fixed by std.conv.
