Should this be done? How?
Just use a documented unit tests block:
///
unittest
{
// code goes here
}
It will be run as part of the unit tests and it will be included when
generating the documentation.
Although I don't have a good solution for the code in dlang.org that's
not part of the Phobos/druntime documentation.
I sent a pull request for the std.net.curl docs. They all talk about
assigning the results of web requests to strings, but at least on my
setup this does not work (cannot assign char[] to string). I was trying
to walk someone else through using this and it was confusing.
Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (get("http.dlang.org",
AutoProtocol())) of type char[] to string
BTW I don't know why you can't convert a char[] to string - seems
harmless enough conversion that way around.
char[] is mutable while string is not. Someone else can have a reference
to the same data and change it will it's typed as "string", breaking the
type system.
