Bug 8627 – ICE(cgcs.c): indexing a returned value of type float[1]

The code below errors with an internal error: // ------------------------------ import std.stdio; class Test { public: auto whatever() { float[1] tmp; return tmp; } } void main() { auto test = new Test; writeln( test.whatever()[0] ); } // ------------------------------ This looks quite simple, hopefully I'm not doing anything wrong? It's working when I initialize tmp with a size of at least 3 elements. Cheers, Christopher.

When you see an internal error, you're NEVER doing something wrong. Reduced test case: ------------------- float[1] bug8627() { float[1] tmp; return tmp; } void test8627() { float f = bug8627()[0]; } Internal error: ../ztc/cgcs.c 343 Dropping importance to normal, because the importance is already covered by the ICE keyword.

And it's a duplicate anyway. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 4414 ***
