digitalmars.D - Functions as parameters in templates.

I wish D templates could accept operators/functions as parameters.
It can accept functions as parameters - both as function pointers, 
and as
aliases.
Let me get this straight. What is the syntax? I tried this: template tempT(alias func) { void temp() { func(); } } void myfunc() { } alias tempT!(myfunc).temp() foo; int main( char[][] args ) { foo(); return 0; }

 Cool, now for operators....
You can use the equivalent name for the operator functions.
How could you pass in the operator for say - integers then? -- -Anderson: http://badmama.com.au/~anderson/

 template tempT(alias func)
 {     void temp()
    {         func();
    }
    }


 void myfunc()
 {     }

 alias tempT!(myfunc).temp() foo;
use: alias tempT!(myfunc).temp foo; Unfortunately, there's a bug preventing that from working, which will be fixed in the next update.
 int main( char[][] args ) {
    foo();

    return 0;
 }

If class Foo has an opAdd() function, use an alias parameter for Foo.opAdd.

Yeah I tried that as well.

That'll help me a lot in simplifying code. Thanks. -- -Anderson: http://badmama.com.au/~anderson/
