i dont know if this is a bug (i do know its a green programmer!) but when i tried to compile the following code the compiler crashed

import std.c.stdio;


int main( char [] [] args ) {
int i;
i = 0;
while ( i < 2000 )
{
i++
printf((*wchar i))

}
printf("blah blaha";)
printf("Hello lewis !");
return 0;
}

i guess im under the impression that the compiler shouldnt crash, it should issue a bad build error?

here the output from the debugger

sorry if im being a pain, just trying to understand

ok we have success, but program terminates with one badass beep :)


import std.c.stdio;

int main( char [] [] args ) {
int i;
i = 0;
while ( i < 2000 )
{
i++;
printf("%C", i);

}
printf("blah blah");
printf("Hello lewis !");
return 0;
}

This is all sounds really odd, I have had similar problems but downloading a new DMD fixed it, ill check the version that ships with DIDE, try downloading latest and see if problem persists ?

also %d for the number, %c for char ;).

No prob, I'll take care of it.

A thing that's been annoying me for a long time...

Quite a lot of messages in this newsgroup seem to have had their TAB characters stripped.  Which, obviously, makes tab-indented code examples rather difficult to read.  I'm skipping the longer and more complicated code examples just because I'm just too lazy to read code that isn't indented properly.

Is it a problem in the news server (if so, could it possibly be configured away) or in some individual newsreader?

Example:

> int main( char [] [] args ) {
> int i;
> i = 0;
> while ( i < 2000 )
> {
> i++
> printf((*wchar i))
> 
> }

> }

Hmm... I never used tabs but let's try for this time only:

/*
 *	Feh
 *
 *		1
 *	^ tab here
 *			2
 *	^	^ and here
 *				3
 *					4
 */

int main()
{
	printf("hello world!\n");

	while (true)
	{
		for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
			printf("Silly code example says %d\n", i);
	}
}

Seems that the tabs are showing properly in my message, so the problem obviously lies in individual newsreaders and in educating the users of such newsreaders to indent their code with spaces.

I realize that if there was an easy solution, it would have been done already... Sorry for taking your time.

Indeed that looks good here too. But I _never_ use TABs, they're evil.

If anyone's got Perl installed (if not, it's free from www.activestate.com), feel free to use the tabify.pl and untabify.pl scripts available from http://synsoft.org/perl.html

It also has MUA built in !

Usually, the first thing I do with a bug report is reformat it into something intellible. By now I've seen every indenting style on the planet, including reverse indenting, and they're all wrong because they're not the one I use <g>.
