A low-priority enhancement request.
This is wrong D2 code:
import std.algorithm;
void main() {
auto r = map!{ a * a }([1, 2]);
}
DMD 2.056head gives four error messages:
test.d(3): template argument expected following !
test.d(3): semicolon expected following auto declaration, not '{'
test.d(3): found '}' when expecting ';' following statement
test.d(4): found 'EOF' when expecting '}' following compound statement
It contains a common mistake:
map!{...}()
instead of:
map!q{...}()
Given how common such mistake is in my code, I'd like the compiler to recognize it and show (if possible) a single and more readable error message.
