I've been trying to set a date for my program (a small struct):
import std.datetime;
auto date = cast(DateTime)Clock.currTime();
setDate(date.day, date.month, date.year);
Problem is that day & month are not integers. And
date.day.to!int
doesn't work either.
You're going to need to provid more details. SetDate is not a
standard
function, so it must be yours, and we don't know anything about
it - not even
its signature, which makes it awfully hard to help you.
That being said, date.day returns ubyte, date.month returns
std.datetime.Month, and date.year returns ushort, all of which
implicitly
convert to int. So, I don't see why you would be having an
problems converting
them to int. This compiles just fine
int year = date.year;
int month = date.month;
int day = date.day;
And date.day.to!int or date.day.to!int() both compile just fine
as long as you
import std.conv. But calling to!int() is completely
unnecessary, because the
conversion is implicit, as show above.
So, without more details, we can't help you.

Thanks for the reply, Jonathan. I think I've got it working now.
