Re: mixing array and string .find()

[BCS]

Hello Brian,

is it possible to write a generic .find function for arrays that
ignores strings and so doesn't cause conflicts? I think in D2 its easy
by putting an if() constraint on the template, but is it possible in
D1? like:

one solution is to dump the std.string.find (or alias it) and have the templated 
function cover that case as well.

template find(T) // untested so that might not work
{
  int find(T[] array, T obj) { ... }
  static if(is(T == char)
     alias std.string.find find;
  else
     int find(T[] array, T[] obj) { ... }
}
