It is not easy to see that the dmd error message in the subject line probably
means something like "member function templates cannot be virtual." (Or after
the language of the spec page, "Templates cannot be used to add virtual
functions to classes.")
class Derived
{
override void foo(T)()
{}
}
void main()
{
auto d = new Derived();
d.foo!int();
}
Abreviated lines from dmd 2.051 output:
... Error: variable deneme.Derived.foo!(int).foo.this override cannot be
applied to variable
... Error: template instance deneme.Derived.foo!(int) error instantiating
