I've a tutorial on templates here: https://github.com/PhilippeSigaud/D-templates-tutorial For the past few days, I transformed the LaTeX files into markdown files, which can then generate pdf, epub and html. Everything works well, that's cool [1]. I'm following Walter's advice from a year ago to provide text for people using e-readers/tablets. This post is not really an announce :) I'm correcting bugs & mistakes and seeing the good work the developers put into DMD. Several things that were flagged as impossible or buggy when I wrote the tutorial a year ago are now possible. Many other things have changed on the template front in 2012 and I need help to list them all, so as to update my doc. So, here is my own small list: - is(Type name = A!(Args), Args...) now exists. The Args... part is new. - the new (a,b) => a+b syntax was introduced - the eponymous trick works even when other non-eponymous members are defined - error reporting got better - CTFE got better. - auto ref? - __ctfe. I think it arrived just when I wrote the doc. I've now used it and it works great! - UFCS: not a template feature per se, but quite useful in conjunction with templates. - UDA. ditto, except I know zilch about them. But, type & value manipulation at compile-time, them I know. Other changes I'm not sure and that should be tested: - any change on __LINE__ and __FILE__? - any change for mixin templates? Do any of you see missing feature/modification that happened in 2012(-2013)? Philippe [1] I'm using pandoc to convert .md into .pdf, .epub, .mobi and .html and it works quite well. Also, its extended markdown syntax is nice. Here is an example of a real-world Haskell executable...

No one can help me complete my list? Has any other thing changed in template-land in 2012?

Some new traits happened. Not there is a way to peek at function parameter identifiers (!): http://dlang.org/phobos/std_traits.html#.ParameterIdentifierTuple + something else I might forgot in std.traits, it's worth revisiting + isPOD in compiler's __traits -- Dmitry Olshansky

The link is botched and I dunno why.

Undocumented? + something else I might forgot in std.traits, it's worth revisiting I don't think I wrote something on std.traits per se (I dealt with __traits), but I'll see. + isPOD in compiler's __traits Ah yes. This one is quite new.

Don't use this yet. It's in 2.061 in a half-unusable state and no clear definition of what a POD is. Everything about that trait is uncertain at this time.

Duly noted.
