Reply to bearophile,
std.metastrings.Format of D 2.029 is broken, I think.
--------------------
The following doesn't work, the pragma isn't seen as an instruction, I
guess this is normal, but I don't like it much:
static if (true)
pragma(msg, "true");
else
pragma(msg, "false");
--------------------
D2 programs need more and more compile-time printing, and:
pragma(msg, ToString(...) ~ ...);
isn't much nice.
So I think that the std.metastrings.Write and std.metastrings.Writeln
templates may be created, able to print strings, integral values,
floating point values, and arrays of those types.
I have started to create such templates, but to create the
std.metastrings.Write I have seen I'd like to have a pragma(msg, ...)
that doesn't add a newline at the end.
Has someone written a template or compile-time-function able to print
a floating point value?
Bye,
