4429 :: toSeq(countTable.values) doesn't work

• filip (orginal) [2018-12-03T15:52:54+01:00] view original

  This works:

  var counter = initCountTable[char]()
  for v in counter.values:
     echo v
  Run

  Documentationation says toSeq() "transforms any iterator into a sequence" so I would except this to work:

  var counter = initCountTable[char]()
  echo toSeq(counter.values)
  Run

  Can someone explain why compilation fails with Error: undeclared field: 'values'

  This file compiles and executes as expected for me:

  import tables, sequtils
  
  var counter = initCountTable[char]()
  echo toSeq(counter.values)
  Run

  Not sure why it isn't working for you. What version of the Nim compiler are you using?

  You are right and I'm a fool for not providing the whole code. In my original code I imported nre and the following can be seen in the documentation for that library:

  : If you love sequtils.toSeq we have bad news for you. This library doesn't work with it due to documented compiler limitations. 
  Run

  Thank you :)

  sequtils.toSeq(...)
  Run

  should work even with nre, or do import nre except toSeq
