So I have an enum:

    enum RC5Command: Tuple!(ubyte, ubyte) {
        Standby = tuple(to!ubyte(0x10), to!ubyte(0x0c)),
        …

I can do:

    RC5Command rc5command = RC5Command.CD;

However, if I do:

    rc5command = RC5Command.BD;

I get:

source/functionality.d(80,16): Error: template std.typecons.Tuple!(ubyte, 
ubyte).Tuple.opAssign cannot deduce function from argument types 
!()(RC5Command), candidates are:
/usr/lib/ldc/x86_64-linux-gnu/include/d/std/typecons.d(900,19):        
opAssign(R)(auto ref R rhs)
   with R = RC5Command
   must satisfy the following constraint:
        areCompatibleTuples!(typeof(this), R, "=")

which is totally unreasonable. And yet D insists. I guess there is an
explanation, but mostly this seems like a bug.


The issue is that it's not EXACTLY a Tuple, because it's a derived type. So it fails isTuple (In fact, I think the compiler just isn't smart enough to detect that it can be implicitly converted to a Tuple).

But that defeats a lot of wrapping mechanisms, which I think is unnecessary.

I think there should probably be an overload:

opAssign(Tuple t) {expand = t.expand;}

that trumps the template one. That should I think take care of it.

Please file an issue.
