I have a struct. The struct have a context pointer. I have this method :

@property
auto save() inout {
    return inout(Lexer)(t, r.save, line, index);
}

The context pointer IS NOT COPIED.

Fixed it that way :

@property
auto save() inout {
    // XXX: dmd bug, context pointer isn't copied properly
    // doing it manualy using black magic.
    // Context pointer is the last element of the struct. Here in position 9.
    auto ret = inout(Lexer)(t, r.save, line, index);
    (cast(void**) &ret)[9] = (cast(void**) &this)[9];

    return ret;
}

1. We can't do anything with code snippets like that. A complete, compilable example is necessary.

2. Such bug reports, along with the complete example demonstrating it, needs to go into bugzilla, not here.

Isn't it an already known bug ?
