I'm having a little difficulty implementing templates in D.NET due to a 
strange happening with the front-end.  I might just be missing 
something, but using the following sample code, here's the chain of 
events I get:

#
# template tp(T) {  T foo; }
#
# public static void main()
# {
#   tp!(int).foo = 6;
# }
#

I get:

TemplateDeclaration::toObjFile
FuncDeclaration::toObjFile
VarDeclaration::toObjFile
TemplateInstance::toObjFile

Is there a particular reason that the variable foo's declaration would 
be called BEFORE the template instance's declaration?  Or did I muck 
something up with the way my code handles things?

It occurs to me, though that most people read all of the posts.  Had I only
wanted Walter's reply I would have e-mailed him directly.  However, I prefixed
it with Walter to draw his attention to it.

It shouldn't matter what order the toObjFile()'s are called, only that they
are called. Also, there is no TemplateDeclaration::toObjFile() function. I
get:

FuncDeclaration::toObjFile(00A8B110, main)
TemplateInstance::toObjFile('tp!(int)')
VarDeclaration::toObjFile(00A8DFF4 'foo') protection 5

Yeah, I added TemplateDeclaration::toObjFile().  I've also figured out 
how the front-end handles it and have since implemented templates.

Thank you, though
