Bug 18038 – Error: with symbol is shadowing local symbol

Arch/Manjaro 64-bit, dmd 2.077.0 struct Thing { import std.string : indexOf; } void main() { import std.stdio : writeln; import std.string : indexOf; Thing thing; with (thing) { writeln(typeof(indexOf).stringof); } } source/app.d(14,24): Error: with symbol app.Thing.indexOf is shadowing local symbol indexOf https://run.dlang.io/is/voz7wb

This is intended behavior. https://dlang.org/spec/statement.html#WithStatement: 5. Use of with object symbols that shadow local symbols with the same identifier are not allowed. This is to reduce the risk of inadvertant breakage of with statements when new members are added to the object declaration. struct S { float x; } void main() { int x; S s; with (s) { x++; // error, shadows the int x declaration } }
