Bug 657 – version(): ignored

This compiles successfully, but I don't think it should. //--------- void bar () { foo (); // should fail } version(none): void foo () {} //--------- $ gdmd -c test.d //---------

There is an error with that extra colon, after the version: version(none) void foo () {} none.d:3: undefined identifier foo none.d:3: function expected before (), not foo of type int version(none) { void foo () {} } none.d:3: undefined identifier foo none.d:3: function expected before (), not foo of type int However, maybe having the colon should be made an error ?

This is an issue with DMD's frontend/documentation and not specific to GDC.

Fixed DMD 1.018 and DMD 2.002
