So currently there is a loss of information when Parameters
Fields and Return type.
i.e. assuming 64 bits
size_t foo(ptrdiff_t) {};
writeln(ReturnType!foo); // prints ulong
Is there any way to get the types as (tuples of) strings of
the the types as they are in the source file?
auto foos = StringReturnType!foo;
static assert(typeof(foos) == string);
pramga(msg, foos); // available at CT, prints size_t
Correct me if I'm wrong but size_t is just an alias of ulong
(assuming 64 bits), so they're the exact same thing. A rose by
any other name etc.
not on 32bits its not. Also consider a Platform specific alias.
The end result is that it is not portable.
