Hello,
Is it possible to make a type implicitly cast to another type?
Something like overloading opCast, but make it so it's used
implicitly. Or is there implicit casting in D at all?
Pseudo-example:
// hypothetical implicit cast:
A opImplicitCast(T)(B b) if (is(T == A)) {
// convert b to A somehow;
}
void do_stuff(A a) {
// do some stuff with a;
}
A a;
B b;
do_stuff(b); // equivalent to do_stuff(opImplicitCast(A)(b));
adam.
