Using remove on a file that does not exist will result in a compiler error that not clear what the issue is example below:
import std.file;
void main() {
remove("IDontExist.txt");
}
std.file.FileException: In std\file.d(400), data file IDontExist.txt: The operation completed successfully.
The exception is return the the file and line number in std.file rather than the line in my code.

Ignore my having marked this as resolved. It was by accident.

you were right.. or even better, closing as a dup of another identical ticket.

This is not an identical ticket to issue 4188, it uses the same example but is reporting on different portions of the message.
4188 is related to the message "The operation completed successfully."
This issue is with reporting the incorrect file and line number for the offending code. And it has not been fixed in version 2.047
std.file.FileException: In std\file.d(409), data file IDontExist.txt: The system cannot find the file specified.

I think this is now supposed to be handled by reading the stack trace. Otherwise there are plenty of functions in Phobos which would be candidates of taking __LINE__ and __FILE__, but I'm not sure if it's worth doing that..

(In reply to comment #4)
I think I can agree with that.
