Is there a way to rebind the arguments of a template?
template foo(X)
{
// X is like A!(a,b,c)
Y = Rebind!(X,d,e,f);
// Y is like A!(d,e,f);
}
foo(A!(a,b,c));
?
template Rebind(alias instance, newArgs...)
{
import std.traits: TemplateOf;
alias tmpl = TemplateOf!instance;
alias Rebind = tmpl!newArgs;
}
This doesn't work because the rebound type is of type tmpl and
not the original
e.g.,
Rebind!(T!b, a)
is tmpl!a not T!a.
You are wrong. tmpl is just alias of template T. So tmpl!a and
T!a are the same type.
alias X = T!(int, short, char);
alias Y = Rebind!(X, short, char, int);
static assert(is(Y == T!(short, char, int))); // passes
