I think :: is not used in the language.In a recent article about D I saw: mixin(__traits(identifier, T) ~ " " ~ to!string(tolower(__traits(identifier, T)[0])) ~ __traits(identifier, T)[1..$] ~ ";"); What if foo::bar were an alias for __traits(foo, bar) ? The code would look like this: mixin(T::identifier ~ " " ~ to!string(tolower(T::identifier[0])) ~ T::identifier[1..$] ~ ";"); What do you think? Another uses: __traits(int, isArithmetic) ==> int::isArithmetic __traits(C, isAbstractClass) ==> C::isAbstractClass __traits(hasMember, S, "m") ==> S::hasMember("m") Well, you get the idea... :: might be applied to other compile time uses, but I just came up with this...
Waow, this /is/ syntactic sugar ;-) Denis -- _________________ vita es estrany spir.wikidot.com
