Arrays of char are assumed to be UTF-8 encoded text and a single char is
not necessarily sufficient to represent a character. ElementType
identifies the type that you will receive when (for instance) foreaching
over the array and D autodecodes the UTF-8 for you. If you'd like to
represent raw bytes use byte[3] or ubyte[3]. If you'd like other
encodings, check out std.encoding.
I should correct this:
* ForeachType is the element type that will inferred by a foreach loop
* ElementType is usually the same as ForeachType but is the type of the
value returned by .front
One major distinction is that ElementType is only for ranges while
ForeachType will work for iterable non-ranges.
I'm just trying to automatically convert D types to hdf5 types so I
guess char[..] isn't obligatory some form of UTF-8 encoded text. Or I
should treat it so?
