           Summary: Outdated docs
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: www.digitalmars.com
        AssignedTo: bugzilla at digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: samukha at voliacable.com


Several outdated pieces in documentation (for 2.0, 1.0 may have some of these
as well):  

The front page (http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/index.html):
"For a quick comparison of the features, see this comparison of D with C, C++,
C# and Java." - the comparisons with other languages are no longer on the
linked page.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/faq.html:
"Doesn't C++ support strings, bit arrays, etc. with STL?" - bit arrays can be
removed from the faq as they are no longer in the core language (complex
numbers will be ditched soon?).

"Why is overloading of the assignment operator not supported?" - supported in D
2.0

"C++ overloads based on const and volatile. D does not." - D 2.0 overloads on
const/invariant but I'm not sure how it is relevant here.

"C++ overloads indirection (operator*)."

"D does not allow overloading of assignment." 

"D does not have constructors or destructors for struct objects."

"C++ name mangling depends on const and volatile being type modifiers."
