Vote++. What made it hit home for me was when I was unittesting some code where the unittests can't be completely deterministic and thus print out lots of crap for human interpretation. (When unittesting random number generators or stress testing a parallelization lib this can be a necessary evil IMHO). In these cases it's easy for a single assert failure to go unnoticed.<br>
<br>On the other hand, I guess we could start using enforce() instead of assert() in unittests if we prefer the old behavior.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 10:57 AM, Andrei Alexandrescu <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andrei@erdani.com">andrei@erdani.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

The recent change to assert() semantics has cause a net pessimization of everyone's efficiency.<br>

I'm using Linux too, and DMD 2.047. I've investigated this some more.<br>
Compilation of the std.container unittests succeeds, but the executable<br>
generated/posix/debug/unittest/std/container terminates with exit status<br>
1. Its main() function never runs.<br>

Can't reproduce on Linux.<br>

When running 'make unittest' on the latest revision of Phobos, it just<br>
fails on/after std.container, without any sensible error message:<br>
<br>
Testing generated/posix/debug/unittest/std/container<br>
make[1]: *** [generated/posix/debug/unittest/std/container] Error 1<br>
make: *** [unittest] Error 2<br>
<br>
Anyone else seeing this?<br>
