          Priority: P2

This code works correctly with DMD 2.050:


void f1(int a) {}
static void function(int a)[] foo = [&f1];
void main() {}


But this doesn't compile:


static void function(int a)[] foo = [function(int a) {}];
void main() {}


The error message:

test.d(1): Error: non-constant expression __funcliteral1

I think this second version of the code too is correct.

The bug report states an issue about func arrays, but:

    // ok
    void f () {} ;
    static void function() foo = &f ;

    // not ok
    static void function() foo = function void() {};

--> Error: non-constant expression __funcliteral1
It seems to me the issue is that one cannot initialise a function variable with
the expression of a function. (Array or not.)
What does the compiler expect there? What does the error mean? As we have
function literals, they should, I guess, be usable where other literals are
accepted.

Note:
    auto foo = function void() {};
throws the same error.

(In reply to comment #2)

This is already filed as bug 2634 "Function literals are non-constant". http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2634.
