digitalmars.D.learn - Can't seem to alias BinaryHeap and use heapify

reply Enjoys Math <enjoysmath gmail.com> writes:
I've got:
alias ProgramResultsQueue(O,I) = 
BinaryHeap!(Array!(Results!(O,I)), compareResults);

outside the class ProgramOptimizer.  Inside the class I have:

ProgramResultsQueue!(O,I) programResultsQ = 
heapify!(compareResults, 
Array!(Results!(O,I)))(Array!(Results!(O,I)), 0);

at class scope (not in a function or ctor).

Error:
cannot pass type Array!(Results(int,float)) as a function 
argument.  When I add () to Array!(Results!(O,I)) I get some 
weird error in the library that can't be helped either.

Please guide me!

It is much more efficient if you can show the problem in minimal code. :)

Here is minimal code that demonstrates the problem:

import std.container;

struct Results(O, I)
{}

bool compareResults(O, I)(Results!(O, I) lhs, Results!(O, I) rhs)
{
     return lhs == rhs;
}

alias ProgramResultsQueue(O,I) =
     BinaryHeap!(Array!(Results!(O,I)), compareResults);

class ProgramOptimizer(O, I)
{
     ProgramResultsQueue!(O,I) programResultsQ =
         heapify!(compareResults, 
Array!(Results!(O,I)))(Array!(Results!(O,I)),
                                                         0);
}

void main()
{
     auto p = new ProgramOptimizer!(int, float);
}

You cannot execute code inside the body of a class other than simple initialization of members when it's possible to do so at compile time. In general, members are initialized in the constructor.

You are passing 'types' but heapify's function parameter takes a storage and an initial size: (Types cannot be function arguments anyway.)
 When I add () to Array!(Results!(O,I)) I get some weird error in the
 library that can't be helped either.

The following at least compiles: import std.container; struct Results(O, I) {} bool compareResults(O, I)(Results!(O, I) lhs, Results!(O, I) rhs) { return lhs == rhs; } alias ProgramResultsQueue(O,I) = BinaryHeap!(Array!(Results!(O,I)), compareResults); class ProgramOptimizer(O, I) { Array!(Results!(O, I)) store; ProgramResultsQueue!(O,I) programResultsQ; this() { programResultsQ = heapify!(compareResults, Array!(Results!(O,I)))(store, 100); } } void main() { auto p = new ProgramOptimizer!(int, float); } Ali
