           Summary: [tdpl] Non-static structs should have access to outer
                    lexical scope

The following is adapted from Walter's "Voldemort Types" article:

import std.stdio;

auto makeVoldemort(int x) {
        struct Voldemort {
                @property int value() { return x; }
                // Compile error:
        }
        return Voldemort();
}

void main() {
        auto v = makeVoldemort(123);
        writeln(v.value);
}

Compiler output:
test.d(5): Error: function test.makeVoldemort.Voldemort.value cannot access
frame of function test.makeVoldemort

According to TDPL, §7.1.9 (p.263): <quote>Nested structs embed the magic "frame pointer" that allows them to access outer values such as a and b in the example above."</quote>

Also from that paragraph in TDPL:

"If you want to define a nested struct without that baggage, just prefix struct with static in the definition of Local, which makes Local a regular struct and consequently prevents it from accessing a and b."

This fails:

    auto makeVoldemort(int x) {
        struct Voldemort {
                @property int value() { return x; }
        }
        return Voldemort();
    }

This works:

    auto makeVoldemort(int x) {
        struct Voldemort {
                int value() { return x; }
        }
        return Voldemort();
    }

So it's a problem with @property.

When using a normal method instead of a property I then get the error: "Internal Error: ..\ztc\cod2.c 4727" on release build. Debug build does not return this error. 2.060.

Current head does not return errors on normal method.
