Here is some code I wrote which enables wrapping a proxy around an object.
I am using it for my serialization library. It works in D1(1.046) and D2
(2.031)
Posting it here for reference by all before I add to much of the stuff
specific to my use, should make it easier to follow.
usage: new ProxyClass!(A, cast(string)"getInt setInt getString"); would
implement the methods getInt setInt and getString from A in the new class.
the code below will fail to compile but not before printing the generated
code to stdout.
Shin Fujishiro has made some new templates for D2 which will make it so I
can get rid of the "setInt getInt getString" part which would make the
usage for D2: new ProxyClass!A;
which would be great!
