Hello,

How to count a number of parameters in uninitialized template method?

For example:
struct Test
{
    void abc(int a, bool status, string text)() {}
{

The method "Test.abc" has three template paramenters.

I know that "TemplateArgsOf" exists but it is used only for INITIALIZED templates...

You can count the commas in the text representation but this is not a good solution. The default value of a TemplateValueParameter can lead to wrong results, for example if it's an array literal or a string literal.

size_t countTP(alias T)()
{
    import std.algorithm : count;
    return T.stringof.count(',') + 1;
}

template T1(A){}
template T2(A,B){}
template T3(A,B,C){}

void main()
{
    pragma(msg, countTP!T1);
    pragma(msg, countTP!T2);
    pragma(msg, countTP!T3);
}

probably the countTP function can be enhanced to handle corner cases I mentioned.
