Hello. I have this code:

void main() { (new B).foo(); }

And have this error:

std.traits.getSymbolsByUDA!(B, myuda).toSymbols!("some", "x") error
instantiating
uda_symbols.d(10):instantiated from here: getSymbolsByUDA!(B,
myuda)
```

If I understand correctly it's happens because code in std.traits can't
choose between A.x and B.x, but I don't understand why. It's a bug or
it's has a more complex base?


This looks like a bug to me. Please file it at https://issues.dlang.org/
