Description Trass3r 2011-08-14 09:35:08 UTC 
import std.stdio;
struct F
{
	int[] g;
	alias g this;
	
	auto ptr()
	{
		return g.ptr;
		write("ptr\n");
	}
}

void main()
{
	F a;
	auto p = a.ptr;
}

prints nothing even though ptr method should override g's .ptr
Comment 1 Kenji Hara 2011-10-23 02:32:51 UTC 
This is sample-code bug.

import std.stdio;
struct F
{
    int[] g;
    alias g this;

    auto ptr()
    {
        write("ptr\n");  // print before return
        return g.ptr;
    }
}
void main()
{
    F a;
    auto p = a.ptr;
}

How embarrassing.

Never mind!
