Hello!

I tried to find any module to work with SQLite3 in D2, and failed. I
found either just bindings to old SQLite versions or D1 modules with
"craft-SQL-on-the-fly" interface, all abandoned.
So I want to add just another D2 SQLite3 bindings and OO-wrapper and
uploaded to GitHub: https://github.com/bayun/SQLite3-D
It seems that no-one wants to support bindings for current SQLite
version.. Well, I'll try to do this. But I currently use very small
subset of it's features, so it's mostly mechanical translation without
further testing.
My tiny OO interface supports prepare/bind style of statements, and
seems to work good :-) But I'm new to D, and will be grateful to
somebody who can check, if my code is correct and don't have subtle
bugs.
Also I cannot figure if this code can be writen simpler:

void getRow(T...)(ref T args) {
	foreach(i, arg; args) {
		args[i] = mixin("getValue!" ~ typeof(arg).stringof ~ "(i)");
	}

}

I want there to call appropriate overloaded function for each item of args tuple, but I was not able to do this without mixin - compiler gives syntax errors when I try to write something like "args[i] = getValue!T[i](i);"

Also if I try to assign to arg, and not args[i], changes are not propagated to variables given as function arguments, even if I have foreach(ref... syntax. Is it a bug or I just don't understand something?

While it might be better to update existing projects, here are some answers.

Try using: getValue!(T[i])(i), the !() shortcut doesn't work with arrays. Might be a bug, but I don't think it necessarily should.

Not sure what your ref syntax looks like, but it should be like below.

foreach(i, ref arg; args) {

I tried to use this:
foreach(ref i, arg; args) {

I was stupid - don't realized that ref affects only one argument, not all of them :-)

Thanks, for suggestions, all works good now :-)
But strangely, assign not to arg, but to args works also, this line:

args = getValue!(T[i])(i);

gets compiled and gives correct results... Not a bad, but I cannot understand why - seems like assigning one value to tuple...
