I don't like it either, but it deals with uninstantiated templates... It also means that you can handle the curiously recurring template pattern. If you cant instantiate the template in the D compiler, then you need to generate C++ code that expresses the D structure and properly instantiates the C++ template. The payoff here is bigger. -- Paul O'Neil Github / IRC: todayman
