Well, yes and no, not really. It's a bit magical. In your case,
it's assigned to an auto variable, and that variable gets that type.
There are other ways to use a TypeTuple where it has other semantics,
as you write yourself.
As explained below, a TypeTuple is just a bag of template parameters,
and thus obeys the rules for a bag of template parameters.
This behaviour confuses me a bit.
Understandable. It's not entirely straightforward, because the
concerns of usability weigh heavier than those of consistency.
And I just don't understand why do we need TypeTuple's value
semantic
to implement std.Tuple,because AFAIK it use variadic template
parameter pack
!= TypeTuple.
The definition od std.typetuple.TypeTuple is:
template TypeTuple(T...){
alias TypeTuple = T;
}
So a TypeTuple is exactly the same as a variadic template
parameter pack.
Sorry for my english.
No need to be, your English is great.
