I'm working on a project where I'm using overloaded virtual methods, and
I've run into a challenge with overload sets.
My code looks something like this:
class Base {
void get(ubyte b) {};
}
class Derived: Base {
//alias Base.get get;
void get(string s) {};
}
I've tried using an alias declaration to combine the two classes' overload
sets in the derived class, but DMD complains that the alias conflicts with
get(string). Is there some reasonably elegant way around this, or is it a
limitation of the language?
Hmm. That's how you're _supposed_ to do it. Sounds like a bug.

It may be related to the fact that you don't have override on the derived
class's get though. You're really supposed to, but it hasn't been promoted to
an error yet (it's enabled with -w until it is). Try that and see if it fixes
it.

He is overloading, not overriding. You have to start notice the
difference when reading these posts :)
