This code can't compile:

{{{

import std.conv;

pure string genCode(int num) {
    string result = "auto a = " ~ to!(string)(num) ~ ";";
    return result;
}

void main() {
    mixin( genCode(1) );
}


}}}


If you want to generate the body of a pure function with any numerical parameter from outside, there is no way to do it.

toStringNow! doesn't help here either.

Purity should be checked after the CTFE functions have been executed.

This is a Phobos issue. It's just because the to!() functions are not marked as
pure. Also the CTFE support for to!() functions is still limited.
