list21.backwards

[simon.hodson at hssnet.com]

I'm playing with lists as an alternative to arrays and have come across a
problem:

module people;
private import std.stdio;
private import list;

class Person
{
mixin List; // Turn the Person class into a linked list.

char[] name,tname;
ubyte age;

this(char[] name, ubyte age){this.name = name;this.age = age;}
}

int main()
{
Person.ListHead people,others;

foreach(Person p; people.each)
{
writefln("Person %s is %d years old", p.name, p.age);
}

writefln("---");

foreach(Person p; others.each.backwards)
{
writefln("Person %s is %d years old", p.name, p.age);
}

return 0;
}


produces:

C:\list21>testing6
---
Error: Access Violation

C:\list21>

So iterating over a list is OK provided you don't try to reverse it. I'm
guessing this is an error in the library but not sure how to fix it.  Anyone got
an idea?
