Some advice on a couple of points.
I have been working on a module that works on either dchar /
dstrings or wchar / wstrings with just two changes of alias
definitions and a recompile.
What I really want to do though is provide one single templated
function with the kind of characters / strings as a parameter. I
want to have something like
T Transform( T )( T str)
called as
auto result = Transform!(dstring)( dstring str );
I only want to have one type as a parameter and derive other
types from that: xstrings from xchars and I’ll need types of
xchar arrays that are mutable and immutable.
I’m quite confused as to how to proceed. This is quite a large
module ~ 2k loc, and I don’t really want to go through and change
every private function into a templated one. Should I just make
the whole thing into a giant template containing many functions?
