Issue ID: 23971
Summary: Provide clearer error message when trying to return a
slice with C++ linkage
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: dmd
Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
Reporter: msnmancini at hotmail.com
```d
extern(C++) const(char)[] hello()
{
return "Hello";
}
```
I believe it would be better to get a better message such as "it is disallowed
to return D slices from C++ linkage since they have no representable mangling
in C++" or something like that.
