This also worked in DMD2.035. Haven't checked intermediate versions. The regression was probably introduced in 2.037.
looks like it parses an expression rather than an initializer. this should fix it: --- parse.c (revision 400) +++ parse.c (working copy) @@ -3248,6 +3248,7 @@ { t = peek(t); if (t->value != TOKsemicolon && t->value != TOKcomma && + t->value != TOKrbracket && t->value != TOKrcurly) goto Lexpression; break;
Oop. Never mind. I was looking at bug 3854 and assumed they were the same. They aren't.
This was caused by the change in 2.037: "The type inferred from an ArrayLiteral is now a dynamic array, not a static one." typeMerge() in cast.c, needed to be modified in response, since [[]] is now of type void[][] instead of void[][0] I've patched this with a more general test for void array literals. I'm not terribly happy with the patch, the dimensionality check seems unnecessarily complicated. // TEST CASES void bug3716() { auto k1 = true ? [1,2] : []; // OK auto k2 = true ?
