dear,
I would like a easy way to forward as does ruby:

I have already something close:=20
- https://gist.github.com/1969776 (me)
- http://paste.pocoo.org/show/uoD89CCjX5H3m6GvPvW6/ (dav1d)

But it works only for array.


I have try to do this purpose: https://gist.github.com/1974033

but i am too new in D

This feature will be really awesome and could be go into std.traits

Check 'opDispatch' and 'alias this'.

alias this is not the answer as it forward all, i fyo want select for this member forwad this method and for another this one ... opDispaytch is not really easy to use for this. my first code do this in 1 line and it is easy to understand hat it do. In 1 line i forward 3 method to a member. This save time, code and bug.

So what's the problem with opDispatch? By the way, don't do things like mixin(SomeTypeArgument.stringof) - it will not work in every case (name conflicts, nested structs/classes etc.) and it's unnecessary conversion to string and back to code. So it wasn't a good idea to change dav1d's variant this way.

You can just mixin an opDispatch function, like (not tested, only works for functions) mixin template Forward(alias member, s...) { auto opDispatch(string name, T...)(T args) { static assert(canFind(s, name)); return mixin("member." ~ name ~ "(args)"); } } or use a foreach over 's' and mixin the function/member definitions for each name.
