I don't think the compiler will auto-convert someTemplate!(inout(V)) to
e.g. someTemplate!(const(V)). Does that work? I know that for
instance, I can't do this:
struct S(T)
{
T * x;
}
S!(int) ptr;
S!(const(int)) cptr = ptr;
So I wouldn't expect the compiler to do the above translation either...
Perhaps you can add this to the struct:
void this(U)(in S!U other) if (__traits(compiles, this.x = other.x))
{
this.x = other.x;
}
If that works, maybe a similar approach could be used to solve the
problem with inout: if you can construct the requested type from the
provided one it get converted automatically at the call site.
