Description Temtaime 2014-06-06 08:57:25 UTC 
std.string.splitLines(``) now returns [], but i expect it to return [ `` ]
Comment 1 Robert Schadek 2014-09-11 11:32:46 UTC 
why? empty given you empty makes sense to me?
Comment 2 basile-z 2015-11-21 14:40:53 UTC 
No your wrong Temtaime,because [``] as result would mean that the input argument contained one empty string:


_______________
import std.string;

void main()
{
    assert( splitLines("\n") == [``]); // ok
}
_______________
