Description andrew 2017-04-05 16:23:15 UTC 
With a declaration like:

char[] string = "hello";

I can print it:

(gdb) p string
$1 = "hello"

But can't slice it:

(gdb) p string[0 .. 3]
cannot take slice of non-array

I'm compiling using dmd v1.079.0 and using gdb as of 4ac40124eef08045bf99ad9f4fcc277961953109.
