https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17941 Issue ID: 17941 Summary: arity (and probably others) only consider the first lexically present function Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: andrei erdani.com Consider: import std.traits; void fun(int); void fun(int, int); void gun(int, int); void gun(int); static assert(arity!fun == 1); static assert(arity!gun == 2); This code passes, indicating that only the first name in lexical order of an overload set is considered by arity. This is definitely surprising. Worst case the behavior should be documented, but a real solution would allow people to indicate which overload they're interested in. --
