https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24635 Issue ID: 24635 Summary: Allow opApply with default parameters Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nobody@puremagic.com Reporter: qs.il.paperinik@gmail.com Currently, to be used by `foreach`, `opApply` must have exactly 1 parameter. It cannot have additional parameters with default values: ```d struct S { int opApply(int delegate(int) dg, int x = 0) => dg(x); } void main() { foreach (int x; S()) { } // Error: cannot uniquely infer `foreach` argument types foreach (x; S()) { } // Error: cannot uniquely infer `foreach` argument types } ``` Of course, the workaround is to call another function: ```d struct S { int opApply(int delegate(int) dg) => opApplyX(dg, 0); int opApplyX(int delegate(int) dg, int x) => dg(x); } ``` However, the whole purpose of default arguments is that one need not do that. The difference between calling into another function or having parameters with default values becomes bigger for classes when those functions are virtual. A use case is a recursive `opApply` that walks a tree-like structure; the recursive calls pass -- |
