When you find yourself doing things like that, seriously consider
creating a
new
module to do it, called "clock".
That's not reliable, because static imports are not enforced. It means
anyone importing a module "clock" will automatically have all symbols
in "clock" imported into the current module, meaning this will work:
-----
import clock;
void main()
{
auto time = currTime(); // note the lack of full qualification
}
-----
And actually, this would have to be std.clock.currTime
(std.datetime.clock.currTime?)
What you are looking for is renamed imports.
import std.datetime.clock = clock;
Which cannot be enforced. and that is really the problem.
