DMD complains: "default argument expected for options".

What's the syntax for an empty tuple?

TypeTuple!() emptyTuple;

AddressInfo[] getAddressInfo(T...)(string node, string service = null, T 
options=emptyTuple) {}

Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (tuple()) of type () to ()

And this smells like a compiler bug.

Workaround:

AddressInfo[] getAddressInfo()(string node){return 
getAddressInfo(node,cast(string)null);}
AddressInfo[] getAddressInfo(T...)(string node, string service, T options);

Thanks, I tried this at first as well, but was turned off by having to  
cast null to string. In the end I just made the string parameter part of  
the variadic tuple.

 And this smells like a compiler bug.
