Compiler prints this non-informative warning: --- Warning: struct Foo has method toHash, however it cannot be called with shared(const(Foo)) this. --- There is no line number to indicate what causes the warning.
Speaking of non-informative - could you include some kind of code that gives this error message?
Just using github search one could pinpoint the location where the message is generated: https://github.com/dlang/druntime/blob/2b6673fd6e008d7f1ece0414f3ad693840005c88/src/core/internal/hash.d#L544
Changed the `component` to druntime.
Thanks a lot. :) So, example code: struct Foo { ulong toHash() { return 0; } } unittest { auto a = Foo().hashOf; } Interestingly, this was a static assert until 4 years ago, changed by this commit: https://github.com/dlang/druntime/commit/463c9d5fef8dd01082ac9bd1bd6971a4a56124f3#diff-1cb07fafd18644ca9974aea7a74483e9L117 A static assert would give the line on which hashOf is called. One might reasonably expect to instead get the line on which toHash is defined. Currently, this is impossible, and would require something like __traits(getLocation, T). Created a separate issue for that in issue 19555. For now, the best that could be done is probably to pass the file and line to hashOf as it's being called.
