Is it possible to override the behaviour of to!string(x) when x
is an enum. I'm asking because this
enum CxxRefQualifier
{
none,
normalRef,
rvalueRef
}
string toString(CxxRefQualifier refQ) @safe pure nothrow
{
final switch (refQ)
{
case CxxRefQualifier.none: return

sorry, i forgot everything.
here is example of how to do this
-
import std.conv : to;
enum Test
{
One,
Two,

}
template to(T: string)
{
T to(A: Test)(A val)
{
final switch (val)
{
case Test.One: return "1";
case Test.Two: return "2";
case Test.Three: return "3";
}

... If your enum actually represents strings, then you could:
enum CxxRefQualifier : string
{
none
