"Cannot put a immutable(char) into a char[40]"
Static arrays aren't considered ranges in templates because their
length can't change. If you slice it, however, it will work,
since a slice is a valid range:
import std.base64;
ubyte[] s0 = ['H','e','l','l','o'];
char[40] s1;
void main () {
import std.stdio;
auto encodedData = Base64.encode (s0, s1[]); // notice the []
writeln(encodedData);
}
Then base64.encode returns the slice into the string that it
actually used.
The slice operator, [], returns a view into the array that can be
advanced by the encode function as needed.
