I have a file containing data like,

--- data.txt ---
abc, 1
def, 2
--- end data.txt ---

I try to read in the data like following, but the the codes do not compile:

--- mytest.d ---
import std.file, std.stdio;
void main() {
    auto arr = "data.txt".slurp!(string, int)("%s, %s");
    foreach(a; arr) {
        writefln("%s: %d", a[0], a[1]);
    }
}
--- end mytest.d ---

Any idea?

Thanks in advance,

Use (I also have added a space after the second %s because slurp is buggy with Windows-style newlines):

auto arr = slurp!(string, int)("data.txt", "%s, %s ");

Sorry, ignore this because it's essentially the same code as yours. What's the error you are receiving? (And better to ask such questions in D.learn).

Bye,
bearophile

Not working for me. It seems to have something to do with string not being swappable:

dmd git head compiles your code. Use the cutting edge dmd or please wait for the next release. :)
