Question

Is there a limit in the amount of temporary generated symbols during a project build using dmd 2.063?

Answer 1

The limit is in the backend: it's possible to instantiate 99999 temporaries right now.

If you need more, you can raise the 'name' declaration in symbol_generate function in symbol.c, and recompile dmd.

I'm having the same issue with 2.063.2 right now!

Answer 2

It's an overflow bug in the compiler.
