Dear,

I would like to get struct's members and zip them with an action

as

struct A
{
  int a;
  int b;
}

std.range.zip( __traits( allmembers, A ), [(x) => x == 0, (y) =>
y > 3] );

like this i could apply an action to each field.

I tried this:
http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/747799ffa64e

but:
  tuple get by allmembers is not an input rage then i can't to use
zip
  allmembers return both fiels and method while i would like only
fields

thanks

allMembers yields the names of all the members. Try .tupleof on an object instead, that might work better.

tupleof will do what you need (mostly). However, I don't think there will be any way to (generically) run-time zip on the members, due to probably type mismatch, and memory layout. In any case, nothing trivial, AFAIK.

You can define a map-like (or zip-like) template to act on tuples as if they were ranges, but the resulting type will still be a tuple: in general, the members and the delegates associated with them will all have a different type.

Bioinfornatics, if you know your struct members are all of the same type, you can 'cast' the tuple as an array by wrapping it in square brackets like this:

[ myStruct.tupleof ]

and then use the usual range algorithms.

If that's not the case, you can create another struct, holding both the original struct and the delegates...

I did some generic range-like work on tuples a few years ago. See for example:

https://github.com/PhilippeSigaud/dranges/blob/master/tuple.d#L620

Could you explain what you want with more details?

I would like to create a generic parser for simple case.
User provide a sructure to fill:
struct A {
    string a;
    string b
}

In another way they are a struct whicg describe how to get start
and end section.



alias predicate = bool delegate( immutable(ubyte)[] );

struct Statement
{
      immutable bool delegate( immutable(ubyte)[] ) start;
      immutable bool delegate( immutable(ubyte)[] ) end;
      immutable bool isOptional;

      @safe nothrow
      this( in predicate start, in predicate end, isOptional =
false )
      {
          this.start      = start;
          this.end        = end;
          this.isOptional = isOptional;
      }

}

Like this you could say members a start by @ and end by a newline

Statement sequenceLine          = Statement(
                                                  ( word ) =>
word[0] >= 'A' && word[0]  <= 'z',
                                                  ( word ) =>
word[0] == '\n' );

Once all section are delimited give them to eat to a parser. You
have not to write a parser for each new file format

One issue with this is that it will allocate a copy of all the elements. This may be fine if the elements are meant for a "read-only" operation. But it won't solve the issue if there are any mutating operations.

Just saying.

I change a little my mind to ease the usage.
Maybe using annotate/attribute on members will be better as:


struct A
{
       @Parser(
                start = "( word ) =>  word[0] == '>'",
                end   = "( word ) =>  word[0] == '\n'" )
       string header;

}


but it seem we can't use curstom annotation in D and mxin in this
case are not easy.
