I have a reference object without a copy factory. I get a compiler error when passing an instance of that object to a function that takes a const &in reference when the object is a global variable but not when it is a local variable. Is this a bug or a feature? MyObject x; void main() { myFunc(x); // Compile error: There is no copy operator for the type 'MyObject' available. } void myFunc(const MyObject &in y) { // Do something } void main() { MyObject x; myFunc(x); // Compiles successfully } void myFunc(const MyObject &in y) { // Do something }

I've made the change to avoid making a copy of ref type when passing it to a const &in parameter. This change is available in revision 1866.
