there a way to do this currently?
No. As far as the compiler is concerned, there is no difference
between an
alias and what it's aliased from.
Played around a bit, and this _seems_ to work:
// Detect alias
foreach(member; __traits(allMembers, l.main))
{
static if (__traits(compiles, __traits(identifier,
mixin(member))))
{
string ident = __traits(identifier, mixin(member));
if (ident != member)
/// Detected an alias
}
}
But I wonder if this is reliable.
