Fix Issue 22617 - CTFE rejects modification of copied static array
int countWins(const uint[2] arr)
{
uint[2] copy = arr;
copy[0] = 0;
return 0;
}
enum force = countWins([4, 8]);
When passing [4, 8] to countWins the interpreter thinks that if
the parameter is constant, then there is no need to create a copy
for CTFE, however, this is true only if the variable never gets modified.
In this case, the arr is correctly assigned to a mutable static array, but
since the interpreter thinks that the original array literal will never get
modifier it simply initializes copy to a slice of it. Hence the error.
This patch fixes the issue by copying the initial array literal on the ctfe stack. The copy is elided only if the array element type contains indirections.
Hmm bot seems to be down, cc @CyberShadow .
