Hello everybody,
Could someone explain why D do not lookup for appropriate super
constructor? It is in specs:
> If there is no constructor for a class, but there is a
> constructor for the base class, a default constructor
> of the form:
> this() { }
But i do not understand intension. Is it so hard for compiler to find
suitable constructor in base class(es)?
simple example:
> class Foo
> {
> this(char[] name) { }
> }
>
> class FooBar : Foo
> {
> /* no ctors defined */
> }
Calling `auto o = new FooBar("test")` result to "constructor FooBar.this
no match for implicit super() call in constructor" message.
Thanks.
