Is there a way to "stringnify" in Dlang? In C we would do
something like the following:
`#define STRINGIFY(x) #x`
What's the equivalent in D?
That's probably depends on what you are trying to achieve.
If you want to write code-like string that looks like a code you
can use token strings
https://dlang.org/spec/lex.html#token_strings
```d
string code = q{
float sqr(float x) { return x * x; }
};
```
For other symbols there is .stringof property (beware, it's
behavior is not part of the spec)
https://dlang.org/spec/property.html#stringof
```d
class MyClass()
{
static this() {
registerSmth(MyClass.stringof); // pass "MyClass" string
}
}
```
And there is stuff for metaprogramming such like this in
std.traits
