Description Michiel Helvensteijn 2009年07月23日 12:30:41 UTC

The spec page that describes properties implies that user defined properties (using get/set methods) can only be members of classes/structs.
But in fact the 'property syntax' also works for global functions. This should be reflected in the documentation.

For D2, such "global properties" will no longer be allowed.

Comment 2 Michiel Helvensteijn 2009年08月31日 11:19:57 UTC

Is there any particular reason?

Comment 3 Walter Bright 2009年09月02日 01:20:11 UTC

No real reason for them to exist.

Comment 4 Walter Bright 2012年01月19日 11:17:35 UTC

Documented global properties.
