           Summary: Template (alias) tuple parameters cannot take .length
                    property in compiletime
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: zan77137 nifty.com



This code doesn't work!
----
auto test(ARGS...)()
{
    int[ARGS.length] x;
    return x;
}

void main(string[] args)
{
    void func(){  }
    auto t = test!(func)();
}
----


Results:
prog.d(3): Error: identifier 'length' of 'ARGS.length' is not defined
prog.d(3): Error: index is not a type or an expression
prog.d(10): Error: template instance prog.main.test!(func) error instantiating


Workaround is this:
----
size_t lengthof(ARGS...)()
{
    return ARGS.length;
}

auto test(ARGS...)()
{
    int[lengthof!(ARGS)()] x;
    return x;
}

void main(string[] args)
{
    void func(){  }
    auto t = test!(func)();
}

Reduced test case:

template Foo(T...) {
    int[T.length] x;
}
static assert(Foo!(1, 2, 3).x.length == 3);
void main() {}



A workaround:

template Foo(T...) {
    int[cast(int)T.length] x;
}
static assert(Foo!(1, 2, 3).x.length == 3);
void main() {}

Patch against dmd r680, fixes resolveHelper()

This patch fixes the reported issue and bug 2953 (D2).  It passed dmd, druntime
and phobos tests.

The patch also fixes the following problems:
--------------------
struct R
{
    alias int T;
}
struct S
{
    R r;
    alias r this;
}
S.T x;                  // (10)
int[S.r.offsetof] y;    // (11)
--------------------
% dmd -o- -c test.d
test.d(10): Error: S.T is used as a type
test.d(11): Error: no property 'offsetof' for type 'R'
