Hi there, I want to iterate over all the public members of a
class, but I've hit a stumbling block when the class resides in a
different module and also contains private members. For example:

Basically the headline. I want to try to implement my DIP. I've

Probably you've come over this problem once in a while, too.
You have a repeating solution, so you use a for(each) loop.
Sometimes, there is an action to be performed between the end of
one iteration and the beginning of the next, if there is one. The
prime example is printing the comma when pri
For a function, one can have a vararg parameter at the end like
this:
int sum(int[] ar ...) { /* code */ }
But for templates, such a declaration is an error. Is there a
specific reason why?
I know I can do it and ensure all the template parameters are
values and are convertible to the desired

{

In general, you can't. In D, `ref` is not part of the type, it's
a "storage class", and as such it is a property that a function

Little nitpicking, but D has many forms of string literals.
Escaping is hard to read especially without syntax highlighting.

It's a bit more complicated though as you need to avoid subtle

Okay, I can accept that. It's a poor decision, but well, it is
what it is.
