https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23482 Issue ID: 23482 Summary: "template instance is not a template declaration, it is a function alias" when template is in a different module Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: andy.pj.hanson gmail.com This requires two files to reproduce. a.d: ``` import b : foo; void foo(char) {} void main() { foo!"a"(1); } ``` b.d: ``` module b; void foo(int[]) {} void foo(string s)(int) {} ``` The error is: ``` a.d(6): Error: template instance `foo!"a"` `foo` is not a template declaration, it is a function alias ``` There is no error if I remove either `void foo(char) {}` or `void foo(int[]) {}`. There is also no error if I move the contents of `b.d` into `a.d`. --
