Also there's mixin templates. What exactly is the difference between
mixin templates and regular templates?
A mixin template is instantiated in context of the instantiation point,
while a regular template is instantiated in the context of the template
definition point.
This becomes relevant when looking up symbols that are not defined
within the template.
The implementation seems to disagree:
int x;
template X(){ // not a mixin template
void y(){x=2;}
}
class C{
int x;
mixin X; // picks up local 'x'
Makes it a mixin template.
}
void main(){
auto c = new C;
c.y();
import std.stdio;
writeln(x," ",c.x); // "0 2"
}
Or am I misunderstanding your statement?
The behavior is as I described.
