Hi, everyone!
Can anybody tell me how to partially initialize a structure in place, i.e:
I have a structure:
struct Props
{
int flag = 1;
int state = 0;
}
and a function:
void f(Props p);
And I want to pass an instance of Props to f with only some fields initialized,
right now I have to write like this:
f(Props(1,1000));
but I want to be able to write something like this:
f(Props(state:1000));
But that doesn't work, is there a way I can make it work ?

You might want to try something like this:
module props;
import tango.io.Stdout;
struct Props
{
int flag = 1;
int state = 0;
public static Props opCall(int state)
{
Props p;
p.state = state;
return p;
}
}
int f(Props props)
{
return props.state;
}
void main()
{
int state = f(Props(3));
Stdout(state).newline;
}
O.
