digitalmars.D - template interfaces

Is it possible to write template interfaces in D?



I am making this question because the compiler accepts the following code:

interface Foo (T)
{
public:
    void do_something ();
}

class Bar(T) : Foo
{                         // <-- this is line 8
    void do_something ( ) { }
}

//-----------------------------



but if I append the main function:

int main ()
{
    Bar!(int) b = new Bar!(int);
                                                                               
                                             
    return 0;
}
//-----------------------------------------

the compiler returns this error:

dmd -c iface.d
iface.d(8): template Foo(T) is used as a type
iface.d(8): class Bar base type must be class or interface, not void


Thanks

Bruno.

Try this: class Bar(T) : Foo!(T) { ... Hauke
