http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2471 Summary: .stringof for nested types does not include outer symbol Product: D Version: 1.036 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com ReportedBy: dhasenan gmail.com template R(T) { struct S; } // (R!(int).S).stringof == "S"; class R { struct S; } // (R.S).stringof == "S"; When doing code generation using CTFE and mixins, it'd be useful to get the outer symbol included in .stringof. For debugging, this would also be helpful. Due to static imports, ideally .stringof would give the fully qualified name. The workaround is to use .mangleof and demangle. --
