Apart from what Artur has mentioned template mixins also give you
opportunity to do qualified injection in case generated symbols
conflict with existing ones:
class A
{
void foo() {}
mixin("void foo() {}"); // error, need to add manual
"namespace" wrapper
mixin func!"foo" Sub; // does this out of the box
}
It also slightly improves error messages because semantic
analysis of generated code is done in template declaration
context as opposed to whole aggregate.
In general it is pretty good styling rule to follow by default
even if it does not make any real difference in simple cases like
this one.
