           Summary: std.variant constructor compatible with D variadics
           Product: D
           Version: 2.025
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Phobos
        AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: dhasenan@gmail.com


std.variant should offer a constructor that can be used with a void*, TypeInfo pair and thus be compatible with D variadic functions. Its current design relies on a large number of compile-time checks, though, and phobos entirely lacks high-level runtime reflection facilities, so this would be difficult.

By design, Variant cannot support such a feature.
