Aah, I see. Not as much an intentional postfix, as an useful side-effect of slicing. Goot thing(tm), a small amount of highly flexible stuff, is way better then tons of specialization.

Unfortunately this functionality doesn't work with my installed compiler
(dmd 0.167 / Linux) :-( I assume it is a bug?

None of your examples work (I get "undefined identifier d" error)
(new Any).assign(d"char[] test"); // Dynamic
(new Any).assign(s"char[] test"); // Static
(new Any).assign(d[1,2,3]); // Dynamic
(new Any).assign(s[1,2,3]); // Static

Does it work on Windows?

Postfix form works well, opposite to prefix form which doesn't...

Probably you are right :-) Thanks for remark.

I seriously doubt it :). This was just a suggestion for how it could be done.

Oskar Linde has since then teached me that this would be the correct and working way:
(new Any).assign("char[] test"[]); // Dynamic
(new Any).assign("char[] test"); // Static
(new Any).assign([1,2,3][]); // Dynamic
(new Any).assign([1,2,3]); // Static

And when you ported to D, did you make the D inner classes static too?

After some more experiments it occurs that I can move Holder class into Any class without problems. It could be putted into public or private section. It doesn't have to have keyword static to work well.

Problems are beginning when I move interface PlaceHolder into private section of Any. After that I get linking errors:

dmd test_any.d any.d
gcc test_any.o any.o -o test_any -m32 -lphobos -lpthread -lm -Xlinker -ldl
test_any.o: In function

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1


What is more interesting there is no problem when I put interface into public section of Any.

In attachment best code which works.
