3297 :: question on range types

• jackmott (orginal) [2017-11-01T14:02:15+01:00] view original

  range types like:

  type
    MySubrange = range[0..5]
  Run

  Are they also checked at runtime? Is there a way to disable them being checked at runtime in release mode?

  They are checked at runtime, but not in release mode (because -d:release does --rangeChecks:off)

  Tiberium, is that explained properly in manual? I think a years ago manual refers only to array ranges when talking about rangeCheckOff pragma? You may investigate and fix that if not already fixed..
