August 06, 2005 Small question on: typedef get opCall; | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
This line is taken from mango: typedef get opCall; Does above line create a new function named "opCall" ? or is "opCall" just another name for existing function "get" ? I thought typedef works only for data types, but here it seems to work on functions too. Could someone please point me the documentation page for this usage. Thanks in advance Sai |

Can you tell us which module this was in? I just tried a "Find In Files" operation on the Mango source and couldn't find it... I'm intrigued by it though, if it is in use.

Althought the documentation still says > typedef get opCall; Hehe, I just tried the "typedef get opShr" and D said that I couldn't do that. Look at this: class A { int x=5; void get(inout int blah) { blah=x; } alias get opShr; } void main() { A a=new A; int x; a >> x; writefln(x); } Maybe a bug was fixed that didn't let you use "typedef" to do what "alias" can do. It's an interesting use of alias, though, and something I never would have thought of. |
