Hi D Community,

Is it possible to get a slice of a function, rather than just its start pointer?

I'm interested in currying a function at runtime - So I would need to copy a function block (Either the original function, a wrapper function, or copys of manually altered functions).

Addresses of labels would also be useful - Does Dlang have computable labels? (&&lbl in C)

I suspect Ill have to do this in ASM, but seeing if there's a higher level solution?

Kind Regards,
Mike Brown

Don't think so.
