ref int foo(ref int x) { return x ; }
void main ()
{
foo(3) ;
// Error: function rvalue_argument.foo (ref int x) is not callable using
argument types (int)
// Comment: "argument ref int x of function rvalue_argument.foo cannot bind
to an rvalue" would be clearer IMO
int i ;
ref ir = i ;
// Error: variable ref_type.main.ir only parameters or foreach declarations
can be ref
// Comment: after the variable name add a colon, and add ", return values"
after "parameters"
}
NOTE: Not creating pull request or bugzilla since procedure much more
tortuous than posting to NG. (Sorry but I'm still catching up on lots of
pending projects right now so...)
