I see the below errors when compiling a simple file using -property -unittest argument combination. Using either one individually creates a functional binary.

I forgot to note that the arg combination compiles using the previous version of dmd v2.066.1, and failure in v2.067.1.

-property is going away, but let's see what the maintainers say. Introduced in https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/2723

I think it is the same bug because the error log by Lucas is about std.uni. If it would be decided that property syntax in Phobos should be fixed I'll fix both bugs.
We should just change it so that -property does nothing (except maybe print that it's a defunct flag) so that no one's build process gets broken by its removal and so that we no longer have to care about it working. We _were_ building Phobos with it to ensure that we weren't breaking anyone's code by writing code in templated functions which didn't work with -property, but clearly, we're not doing that anymore. I think that we either need to be building with -property to ensure that we're not breaking folks code (and thus need to fix this regression), or we need to fix it so that -property does nothing so that there are no compilation errors related to -property.

All lines with call `_ctfeSkipOp` or `_ctfeSkipInteger`.

Should we just revert it? Not only this PR! You need to revert half of Phobos if you want to fix this bug by reverting something. For example, this is line in std.uni: static bool pred(dchar c) {return !c.isWhite && c != '-' && c != '_';} The error (the first in this bug report) occurs because c.isWhite has not braces, not because my PR. We need make the choice: 1. Remove -property option from compiler OR 2. Add the -property option to the GitHub testing engine and fix ALL Phobos.
(In reply to Илья Ярошенко from comment #11) > We need make the choice: > 1. Remove -property option from compiler > OR > 2. Add the -property option to the GitHub testing engine and fix ALL Phobos. Exactly. And given that even if we want some type of property enforcement, the -property flag is enforcing something that we definitely _don't_ want at this point (that non-@property functions be called with parens), I think that we'd be better off to just remove -property. And presumably, that would mean making it do nothing to begin with rather than simply removing it, but we clearly don't want it, and it seems rather silly to be making a bunch of changes to Phobos at this point to support it (though arguably, whatever PR that removed the -property flag from the Phobos build shouldn't have been pulled as long as -property was still in the compiler, but it's a bit late for that now). So, personally, I think that the clear choice is to make -property do nothing (except maybe print out a warning about how it now does nothing), but I don't know how much work that would be. Regardless, we have to get rid of it at some point, and if we don't do it now, we need to start building Phobos with -property, and make all of the changes associated with that.

It would be possible to replace the property error with another one in the test. But Martin Nowak says: "Just remove the test." The test for issue 9241 was about the exact error message for when a non-property is called without parentheses. That's allowed now, even with -property.
