From fail_compilation/fail146.d:

int bar(int i)
{
    switch (i)
    {
        case 1:
            i = 4;
            break;
        case 8:
            i = 3;
            break;
    }
    return i;
}

void main()
{
    static b = bar(7);
    printf("b = %d, %d\n", b, bar(7));
    assert(b == 3);
}



Error message:
fail_compilation/fail146.d(4): Error: no default or case for 7 in switch
statement
fail_compilation/fail146.d(4): Error: Statement
SwitchErrorStatement::toCBuffer()
 cannot be interpreted at compile time
fail_compilation/fail146.d(18): Error: cannot evaluate bar(7) at compile time
fail_compilation/fail146.d(18): Error: cannot evaluate bar(7) at compile time
fail_compilation/fail146.d(19): Error: 'printf' is not defined, perhaps you
need to import core.stdc.stdio; ?


For all intent and purposes, this line:

fail_compilation/fail146.d(4): Error: Statement
SwitchErrorStatement::toCBuffer() cannot be interpreted at compile time

Should ideally not be emitted as an error.

Regards

Error message is now:
test.d:3: Error: non-final switch statement without a default is deprecated
test.d:17: Error: CTFE failed because of previous errors in bar
test.d:18: Error: 'printf' is not defined, perhaps you need to import
core.stdc.stdio; ?



Interestingly, fail146.d has been removed from the testsuite, why is this?

Marking as resolved anyway...

I was curious, so I went to find the reason:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/commit/d530bf60e34bb01932d5656c6a1b392beac6e5d2

Found via looking at the history for the file:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/commits/master/test/fail_compilation/fail146.d

also doable through the git cli: git log test/fail_compilation/fail146.d
