may be there is a way to cast array directly but i doubt.

so you need either to do this

	IXXX[] x = [new XXX(), new XXX()];
	Variant v = x;
	writeln(v.get!(IXXX[]));

or cast all members of original array to its base type

	XXX[] x = [new XXX(), new XXX()];
	Variant v = x;

	foreach( ixx ; v.get!(XXX[]) )
	  writeln(cast(IXXX)ixx.get());

Yes, it a work, thank you. The problem occurs when, in Variant 
already recorded XXX[] and it is necessary to extract the IXXX[], 
because in the place used nothing is known about type XXX.

so you need just to cast XXX[] to IXXX[] ? AFAIK arrays can't be 
casted to other types. but you can use std.conv.to to convert it.

writeln( std.conv.to!(IXXX[])(v.get!(XXX[])) );

but if you put another class derived from IXXX you can see they 
are still initial types, not IXXX as you may expect.

I rather had in view that's - http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/43290b8c, 
probably Variant has the limited realization.
