I had started toying around with this, and the main and immediate challenge I ran into is the integration of templates. The 2 issues are: 1. All templates must be in object.d, or the compiler won't see it.
Do you know why that is? Can they be put in a separate module but imported by object.d?
2. A simple (and needed) trait like "hasElaborateCopyConstructor" requires a good third of both "typetuple.d" and "traits.d". "functionAttributes" is pretty simple though (I think).
Can't we move some of the traits to druntime? std.traits would publicly import the ones which were moved.
So the two challenges are: 1. If we integrate a large amount of template code, where would it go?
It depends on where it needs to be used. Some suggestions: * core.traits|typetuple * rt.util.traits|typetuple
2. How will we deal with not having massive code duplication?
Move to druntime? Phobos already depends on it. -- /Jacob Carlborg
