Sorry. The previous is not the one causes the problem.
Try this:
struct S {
string str = "Hello"; // Adding an initial value here.
};
S g_s;
unittest {
S s1;
S s2;
assert(s1 == s2); // Success
assert(g_s == s1); // Fail
auto s3 = g_s;
assert(s3 == g_s);; // Even this will fail.
}
It seems if the string is initialized with a default value, then this
does not work.
Yeah. It's failing for me too. It's obviously a bug of some kind. I'd have to
going digging through d.puremagic.com/issues to see whether anything like it
has been reported though.
By the way, the semicolon at the end of the definition of S is unnecessary in
D.

It is strange. The reason could be: by default for structs it does
bitlevel memcmp style comparison. Now in this case it will compare
pointer-length pairs directly, if somehow global var got different
string (address-wise) then it won't compare equal to S.init no matter what.
So two things:
- print out .str.ptr for all of you vars to see if that's the case
- define sane opEquals*:
bool opEquals(in S s)const{
return str == t.str;
}
* I haven't followed the timeline of the changes to opEquals that
ultimately made things much simpler so you may have to rewrite it as
bool opEquals(const ref S s)const in dmd 2.055.
