You don't have opCmp implemented correctly.  opEquals returns true if they 
are equal, while opCmp returns 0.

It should be

int opCmp(Object o)
{
    auto t = cast(Foo)o;
    if(t is null)
        return 1;

    return i < t.i ? -1 : i > t.i ? 1 : 0;
}

And, it's supposed to be "toHash", not "getHash".  This is just where 
"override" comes in handy.

Slightly offtopic, but shouldn't we have some function (in std.intrinsic=
,  =

perhaps) to do just that:

int compare(int a, int b) {	// + overloads for byte, ubyte, short, ushor=
t,  =

uint, long, ulong
	return a < b ? -1 : a > b ? 1 : 0;

I personally think that opCmp should return -1, 0 or 1 *only*. That's bo=

True, but at least in my line of work using values in the min/max range 
is rare and you can always do something different if your using byte or 
unsigned.  Having to branch during this sort of operation can be very 
expensive since it can live in the innermost of loops.

 True, but at least in my line of work using values in the min/max range 
 is rare and you can always do something different if your using byte or 
 unsigned.  Having to branch during this sort of operation can be very 
 expensive since it can live in the innermost of loops.

Probably in most any line of work if you're getting within a factor of 
two of the max int then you are asking for trouble.

But I think the bigger issue is that precisely because you will never 
hit int.max or int.min, these values are often used as special indicator 
values.  Like to mean "not found" or "not initialized" or somesuch.

This is true.  Its difficult to imagine many cases with int where people 
want to use the entire range of signed int for a container.  Maybe if 
they are storing a mask or something.  I guess a healthy dose of asserts 
would be handy.
