- Paolo Invernizzi (8/41) Feb 17 2023 Hi Bastiaan,
Hello everybody,
Let's assume there's an implementation of a templated struct like 
this:
```
import std.format, std.range.primitives;
struct Point(T)
{
     T x, y;
     void toString(W)(ref W writer, scope const ref 
FormatSpec!char f) const
     if (isOutputRange!(W, char))
     {
         put(writer, "(");
         formatValue(writer, x, f);
         put(writer, ", ");
         formatValue(writer, y, f);
         put(writer, ")");
     }
}
void main(){
         import std.format : format;
         assert( format("%s", Point!int(1,2)) == "(1, 2)");
     	import std.experimental.logger;
     	sharedLog.infof("%s", Point!int(1,2));
/+
  Error: none of the overloads of template 
`std.logger.core.Logger.memLogFunctions!LogLevel.info.logImplf` 
are callable using argument types `!()(string, Point!int) shared`
/Users/pinver/dlang/dmd-2.102.0/osx/bin/../../src/phobos/std/lo
ger/core.d(828,14):        Candidates are: `logImplf(int line = __LINE__,

}
```
What is the best way to handle also shared writers?
Thank you all,
Paolo

Pasting this into https://run.dlang.io/, it just works. That's 
for DMD 2.099, so it might be a regression -- or recent feature?

I solved it simply using the 'logX' functions at module level instead of the sharedLog methods.
