Okay, I just tried changing "alias void*" to "alias Typedef(void*)", and
also "alias HANDLE" to "alias Typedef(HANDLE)", etc.
First error I got?
HMODULE hAdvapi32 = null;
...\src\phobos\std\internal\windows\advapi32.d(32):
Error:
cannot implicitly convert expression (null) of type typeof(null) to
Typedef!(Typedef!(void*,null),Typedef(null))
Which makes sense, except that I'm not sure how to solve it correctly in
general...
I think it's a bigger problem than it looks, since 'null' would need to
be convertible to everything that's nullable...
This is a frequent problem with null. Since null is its own type now, it
doesn't play nice with custom types, only builtins enjoy special treatment
for null.
ideas?
probably something like opBool:
struct S
{
int x;
static S opNull() { return S(0);}
}
S s = null; // equivalent to S(0);
