I want to generate one function for any struct data member, but
also want to be able to skip few of the members. The first part
works, but I have some trouble with the skipping.
I pass the struct type and a Compile-time Argument List of
strings as template arguments to a template function, list all
members of the struct and compare each member to each element of
the List. If the member is in the List skip processing of that
member. Pretty straight forward ... should be.
// First approach doesn't work:
// Error: variable skip cannot be read at compile time
void processMember( T, ignore... )() {
foreach( member; __traits( allMembers, T )) {
bool skip = false;
foreach( arg; ignore )
skip = skip || ( arg == member );
static if( !skip ) {
// process member here, generate e.g. setter function as
string mixin
}
}
}
// Second approach, get warnings for every skipped member
// and every line after the return statement:
// Warning: statement is not reachable
void processMember( T, ignore... )() {
foreach( member; __traits( allMembers, T )) {
foreach( arg; ignore )
static if( arg == member )
return;
// process member here, generate e.g. setter function as
string mixin
}
}
So how can I achieve my goal the right way?
