For uniformity with normal integers I'd like this handy assignment to work:
import std.bigint;
void main() {
BigInt x, y;
x = y = 1;
}
But with dmd 2.057beta it gives:
test.d(4): Error: template std.bigint.BigInt.opAssign(T : long) does not match any function template declaration
test.d(4): Error: template std.bigint.BigInt.opAssign(T : long) cannot deduce template function from argument types !()(void)
I think the problem is solved returning the input argument from both opAssign:
///
T opAssign(T: long)(T x)
{
data = cast(ulong)((x < 0) ? -x : x);
sign = (x < 0);
return x;
}
///
T opAssign(T:BigInt)(T x)
{
data = x.data;
sign = x.sign;
return x;
}
