It's not a bug, It's a feature! -- | |||

Does it have a valid length? Does it behave any differently than a "void[]"? -- | |||

Please ask such questions in the Learn group of the forum: http://forum.dlang.org/group/learn Regarding void[], see http://dlang.org/spec/arrays.html (section "Void Arrays" near the bottom). If that doesn't answer all your questions, please make a thread in the forum. -- | |||

If that doesn't answer all your questions, please make a thread in the forum. Thanks for the link. I've read that before but didn't retain it. To this bug, I'm still wondering if it's specific to the const case. -- | |||
