           Summary: Can't overload non-templated function against template
           Product: D
           Version: 2.030
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: rejects-valid
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: dsimcha@yahoo.com


DMD doesn't seem to allow overloading of non-templated functions against templated functions even when they have different arity and therefore no ambiguity exits.  Test case:

void foo(const char[] stuff) { }

void foo(T)(const char[] stuff, const T[] moreStuff){}

C:\home\dsimcha\bin\test.d(3): Error: template test.foo(T) conflicts with
function test.foo at C:\home\dsimcha\bin\test.d(1)

Note:  See bug 2268.  This was fixed sometime in the last few releases, and I think the fix for it caused this bug.

Breaks TDPL example, stylized below:

module main;

import std.stdio;

void overloadme(uint number)
{
    writeln("This is overloadme with uint.");
}

void overloadme(long number)
{
    writeln("This is overloadme with long.");
}

void overloadme(T)(T number)
{
    writeln("Generic overloadme called.");
}

int main(string[] argv)
{
    overloadme(25);
    overloadme("Bla");

    writeln("\nFinished");
    readln();
    return 0;
}
