My mistake, I forgot that enum cannot be inferred!
Very very sorry, suppose I didn't intervene Also this has
worked:
```d
void main() {
template Fun(Key, Value)
{
import std.typecons;
alias Tup = Tuple!(const(Key), const(Value));
enum Fun = (Key k, Value v) => Tup(k, v);
}
string k;
uint v;
auto res = Fun!(string, uint)(k, v);
assert(
is(typeof(res[0]) == const(string)) &&
is(typeof(res[1]) == const(uint))
);
}
```

```
I rewrote the code to return the enum. However, static asserts
return false. What could this cause?
P.S. Actually the code works when we don't use enum.

Great! OK, now the code is:
auto findFirst ()
{ if (root is null)
{ Key k = Key.init;
Val v = Val.init;
return Tuple!(const(Key), const(Val))(k, v);
}
Node n = root;
while (n.lft !is null) n = n.lft;
auto k = cast(const)(n.key);
auto v = cast(const)(n.val);
return Tuple!(const(Key), const(Val))(k, v);
} //nd bool findFirst (out Key k, out Val v)
I couldn't show that previously because the various things I was trying
were too different.

I don't really know where to start. dup doesn't reliably work on
template parameters. Assignment returns things that may have internal
pointers. The code is 5-6 lines of testing this approach or that, and
every single one of them has failed. Some approaches will work with
strings, but not with ints, some with ints but not with strings, some
may return pointers to internal data. What I'm trying to do is return
data that will be const or immutable from a function. They syntax I
wanted was something like:
bool func (const out Key k, const out Val v) { k = this.key.dup; v =
this.val.dup; return true; }
but that fails six or seven different ways.

How should I return multiple const values from a function?
I want to return values of the template parameter type, so there doesn't seem to be any way to dup or idup them. I don't want the returned values to be able to be used to modify the values held in the table. const out is an illegal parameter type. dup doesn't work on ints. So I tried to return a tuple, but cast(const) doesn't work on strings. (Error: cannot implicitly convert expression `tuple(k, v)` of type `Tuple!(string, string)` to `Tuple!(const(string), const(string))` Sometimes it remembers that I've done the cast, and sometimes it doesn't. The code was: return tuple (cast(const)(Key.init), cast(const)(Val.init)); I've no idea why it was talking about type `Tuple!(string, string)`, since in the test the types were (string, uint). I feel like I'm overlooking something obvious, but I've no idea what. I really just wanted to return dups, but those don't work if one of the types might be an int. (Though I should have been trying to return idups. O, well.) -- Javascript is what you use to allow third part programs you don't know anything about and doing you know not what to run on your computer.
