Description Marco Leise 2015-10-04 19:24:53 UTC 
/**---
  char c = ')';
  ---*/
  void main() {}

DMD: "Warning: Ddoc: Stray ')'. This may cause incorrect Ddoc output. Use $(RPAREN) instead for unpaired right parentheses."

Me: "But it is a code example!? Well then ..."

  /**---
  char c = '$(RPAREN)';
  ---*/
  void main() {}

Me: "But stop warning me now, ok?"

DMD: "Error: unterminated character constant"

Me: ":-( sarcasm is the dark side of humor, DMD"

Works for me when I use the `-D`. No warning and the output is fine.
