Hi Manu, what did you do, any progress? So why don't you use 2 <br>
aliases like T, R? For example:<br>
<br>
```d<br>
template func(T : const T, R : const R)<br>
{<br>
void func(const(T)[] x, const(R)* y)/*<br>
void func(T[] x, R* y)//*/<br>
{<br>
typeid(x).writeln(": ", T.stringof);<br>
typeid(y).writeln(": ", R.stringof);<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
import std.stdio;<br>
void main()<br>
{<br>
const<br>
int[] x;<br>
//const<br>
int y;<br>
<br>
func(x, &y); /* Output:<br>
const(int)[]: int<br>
const(int)*: int */<br>
<br>
const<br>
int* [] a;<br>
//const<br>
int* b;<br>
<br>
func(a, &b); /* Output<br>
const(const(int)*)[]: const(int)*<br>
const(const(int)*)*: int* */<br>
}<br>
```<br>
<br>
