digitalmars.D.learn - Conversion to output ranges

Hi,
does anybody know how to bring std.conv.to or something similar to 
output into an output range?

int a = 42;
char[25] buffer;
to!typeof(buffer[])(a, buffer[]);

I want to send these texts throw sockets. Therefore I'd like to reuse 
the buffer.

You could use std.format.formattedWrite. import std.exception, std.format, std.stdio; // I don't know if this already exists somewhere: struct Filler(T:T[]){ this(T[] pl){payload = pl;} size_t index=0; T[] payload; void put(const T[] s){ enforce(payload.length>=index+s.length); payload[index..index+s.length]=s; index+=s.length; } void put(char s){ enforce(payload.length>=index); payload[index++]=s; } property auto data(){return payload[0..index];} } auto filler(T)(T pl){return Filler!T(pl);} void main(){ int a = 42; char[25] buffer; auto f = filler(buffer[]); formattedWrite(&f,"%s",a); writeln(f.data); }

Just noticed that this overload is not even necessary.

Sorry, I didn't reused the buffer. Hope this helps:

    auto buffer = new OutBuffer();

    int a = 42;
    buffer.write(a);

    byte[] bytes = cast(byte[]) buffer.toBytes();
    ubyte[] ubytes = buffer.toBytes();

    buffer.offset = 0; // cleared
    buffer.write(cast(byte[]) [1,2,0x2]);

Timon, std.outbuffer.OutBuffer looks like your Filler struct.

Thanks :) This solution seems to work. I just wanted to point out that I forgot the ampersand and this was hard to track down. I seemed to work but index wasn't incremented so I always got an empty slice. Mafi
