It still fails with the same error, I did try adding the 'f' suffix, and it's probably needed, but that didn't fix it.

I have:

On windows:
Digital Mars D Compiler v1.015

And on linux:

I can't find any example of this in the offical documentation, nor on google at the moment.

your code snippet works for me axactly like u put it here.

try a newer compiler version (dmd1.015 is pretty old) the actual stable release is dmd1.025 (when u need tango) or dmd1.026 when u use phobos.

Ah Yes,

I see the problem now. The dmd web site isn't entiredly up to date, you must go to the DMD 2 page to download the latest dmd 1 compiler:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/dcompiler.html

verses:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/download.html

rather confusing. Looks like the second is pointing to an old page.

Thanks for your help.

It's not an old page, this is actually Walter's policy.  I honestly think he just forgot to update it in a while, because at first, the "stable" download was always about 2 or 3 releases behind, not 11.

I don't quite understand. Both the pages say stable version... yet one is newer than the other.

I guess it's just a plain old case of Walter forgetting to update one of them :\
