My bad ;-) My first implementation was using just a template
mixin, but I hit a few bugs (At least 2, one should be fixed
already the other one I can't remember, but had something to do
with derived classes), so I tried the string mixin approach and I
have to admit, that I like it more now, regardless of template
mixin bugs. The added flexibility of choosing the protection is a
big win as it is not that unlikely that someone wants for example
derived classes being able to emit the signal.
Another minor drawback of the template mixin, is that I have to
wrap all struct members into mixin functions*) and the actual
struct would need to be renamed into something less straight
forward too.
Best regards,
Robert
*) Without wrapping, using the signal would be more ugly,
something like:
class Test {
mixin Signal!int a;
mixin(signal!int("b"));
void doSomething() {
// something
a.signal.emit(4);
// vs
b.emit(4);
}
}
