December 15, 2017 Is there a pragma or command line option to ask DMD to show a warning when it implicitly casts from long to ulong ? | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|

 | It's taken me some time to find an implicit cast bug ("if (my_sometimes_negative_index >= this_array.length)"), while a simple C++-like implicit-cast warning would have allowed me to find this nasty bug WAY sooner...
