A pointer template-struct to a virtual member function without knowing
the target object in advance?
Something like this: http://codepad.org/SXIP2jBL ?
Yeah, I was experimenting with this method while you wrote this. The
sad thing about it is that you need to specify the name of the function
as a string instead of an alias... meaning that a typo will create an
error inside the template's code. Well I've found a trick to avoid that:
template FunctionName(alias f) {
const string FunctionName = (&f).stringof[0..$-2];
}
Using this template, you can get the name of a function from an alias,
but that's mostly a hack.
And also, you can't create such a "pointer" to a private or protected
method and give it to another template that lives outside the class:
the mixin just won't work there because of the protection attribute.
But your template is pretty neat.
