Can't you use a template lambda alias argument to pushTo
instead, so
then you can instantiate it inside pushTo?
something like
nullStream!char
.bufferedInput
.pushTo!(_ => _
.arrayCastPipe!ubyte
.outputFile("output.txt")
);
maybe?
I could do that. But I don't like it ;)
I don't think it's so bad, but fair enough
I will note that Adrian Matoga's flod library has a different
solution that I think is similar to this, but I don't
understand it very well.
I'm also concerned that using a lambda is going to confuse or
prevent optimization.
Why would you think that? If we can't trust the optimiser (dmd
aside) to inline a template lambda argument then phobos is
totally screwed!
I think with some better naming, the push feature will look
better.

I look forward to it.
