Includes Kenji's fix (thanks for the super quick response!)

http://ftp.digitalmars.com/dmd2beta.zip

Still fails my latest mentioned regression:

inout(int[]) foo(inout(int)[] x)
{
??? return x;
}


Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (x) of type inout(int)[] to inout(int[])


Given that inout is relatively new to the implementation, I'm not sure how much existing code this breaks.? It certainly breaks dcollections, but I can just instruct people not to use 2.057, and I haven't done a beta release of it since I added the inout decorations.

So it might not be horrible if this goes out.? There is a valid workaround (use a blunt cast).

Again, sorry for the last-minute testing.? I've been busy with work lately.

-Steve

In any case, there needs to be a bugzilla entry for it.

Unless the fix is invasive, I'd suggest fixing for this release.  That's not exactly an obscure use of inout.

The problem is we lose another day of work doing this.

Seriously?  You're going to put keeping to an arbitrary schedule as higher priority than not introducing regressions?

Why is breaking code OK to you just to follow an arbitrary schedule that you define in your head? If there was an official release schedule then these issues could be avoided.

---------------------------
dmd.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x00489c21" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Sweet. :/

That will teach me to use templates. I'll try to reduce, it's a single module only..

Going on fixing one bug a day brings everything to a screeching halt.

I don't get it, I can't build DustMite on 2.057: D:\DMD\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\file.d(3710): Error: f unction std.file.isDir is deprecated

But it calls isDir on a string, which should forward to the isDir function which isn't deprecated. :s
