Can't you just query compile-time information to see what classes

Is that possible?
No. Not from within a template that doesn't know about those classes
(which
presumably your serialization function is).

You can get a list of classes in the executable at runtime from:
foreach (m; ModuleInfo)
{
if (m)
//writefln("module %s, %d", m.name, m.localClasses.length);
foreach (c; m.localClasses)
{
writefln("\tclass %s", c.name);
}
}
The question was, can you get this information at compile time.
