OS: Windows 7 64bit
Compiler: DMD32 D Compiler v2.059

Using spawn in module constructor causes very strange behavior.

import std.concurrency;
import std.stdio;
void main() {
}
void worker() {
  receiveOnly!OwnerTerminated;
}
static this() {
  writeln("module constructor");
  spawn(&worker);
}
static ~this() {
  writeln("module destructor");
}

prints in console:

module constructor
module destructor
module constructor
module destructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
...

This list is for bugzilla to post to, it is not for general bug reports or help requests.  I really wish it was disabled to post to from everyone but bugzilla.

Please repost your issue to D.learn.

Thanks

Oh, I'm sorry. My mistake.
