Perhaps boost fusion is one example where this territory is explored.
I'm very curious to see what some D programmers will do with this.
Two minor mistakes in the examples from
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/template.html:
Write!(int, char, double).print(1, 'a', 6.8); // prints: args are 1a6.8
should be: Write!(int, char, double).write(1, 'a', 6.8);
And:
void Foo(T t, R r)
{
writefln(t);
if (r.length) // if more arguments
Foo(r); // do the rest of the arguments
}
should be:
void Foo(T t, R r)
{
writefln(t);
static if (r.length)// if more arguments
Foo(r); // do the rest of the arguments
}
