digitalmars.D.learn - Finding source of typeid use

My library is generating a typeid from somewhere.
e.g.
typeid(const(Pointer!(cast(AddrSpace)1u, float)))

but I have never declared a const of that type nor have I used 
typeid explicitly in my program. Where is this coming from?

The program is just:

enum AddrSpace {
     Global,
     Shared
}
struct Pointer(AddrSpace n,T)
{
     T* ptr;
}
private import std.traits;
struct AutoIndexed(T) if (isInstanceOf(T,Pointer))
{
     T p = void;
     enum  n = TemplateArgsOf!(T)[0];
     alias U = TemplateArgsOf!(T)[1];
     static assert(n == AddrSpace.Global || n == AddrSpace.Shared);

      property U index()
     {
         static if (n == AddrSpace.Global)
             return p[0]; //Some calculation
         else static if (n == AddrSpace.Shared)
             return p[0];// ditto

     }

      property void index(U t)
     {
         static if (n == AddrSpace.Global)
             p[0] = t; // ditto
         else static if (n == AddrSpace.Shared)
             p[0] = t; // ditto
     }
      disable this();
     alias index this;
}

alias aagf = AutoIndexed!(GlobalPointer!(float));

 kernel void auto_index_test(aagf a,
                              aagf b,
                              aagf c)
{
     a = b + c;
}

It seems to be coming from the need to hash the type, goodness knows why, which explains why I only get the const variety.

No, the culprit is https://github.com/dlang/druntime/blob/master/src/object.d#L1128 but IDK why it is being generated in the first place since nothing I wrote relies on being able to hash it.

I suspect this is generated while building the hash function for your Pointer struct in buildXtoHash in ddmd/clone.d.

Hmm, I found needToHash(StructDeclaration sd) which enumerates the fields If a field is a struct recurse, makes sense if the struct has an alias this, which Pointer does, generate a typeinfo, with a note to see https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14948 / dmdPR 5001.
