Walter and I also discussed "static unittest" a while ago -
yes, another use of static :o).
A static unittest would be evaluated only during compilation,
and would prove things that fall in the realm of static
checking but are not verifiable with traditional typesystem
approach.
That won't enable things we can't do today (there's always
assert(__traits(compiles, ...)) but it's instantly
recognizable, very easy to use, and pushes semantic checking to
a whole new level.
Thoughts?
