That certainly makes sense. I just got thrown off by the example in
std.algorithm:
uint hashFun(string) { ... expensive computation ... }
string[] array = ...;
// Sort strings by hash, slow
sort!("hashFun(a) < hashFun(b)")(array);
The only way this could work would be if hashFun was available to the
sort template, I guess...?
Nope, still std.functional. That's where the string is mixin'ed.
Right. Given the example, there's no way to tell that sort is
implemented using std.functional, so really meant whichever function is
actually using the string ;) But, yeah, I understand how it works.
Thanks.
But thanks for noting that, I've filed it as issue #5513.
Good.
