The following code:
int guess;
readln().formattedRead!"%d"(guess);
produces the following compiler error:
Error: template std.format.formattedRead cannot deduce function from argument types !("%s")(string, int), candidates are:
/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/format.d(635): std.format.formattedRead(alias fmt, R, S...)(ref R r, auto ref S args) if (isSomeString!(typeof(fmt)))
/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/format.d(644): std.format.formattedRead(R, Char, S...)(ref R r, const(Char)[] fmt, auto ref S args)
That is odd! I expected this to match:
uint formattedRead(alias fmt, R, S...)(ref R r, auto ref S args)
However, the following works!!!
int guess;
string line = readln();
line.formattedRead!"%d"(guess);
This definitely looks like a bug, but I want to confirm first before filing one.
