Premature post send by error sorry.... Well something like:
static if ( isIntegralConstant!(typeof(required_capacity()) )
ElementType[required_capacity()] data_;
else
ElementType[] data_;
}
For that, at least in C++, I need integral_constant<> type with
compile-time arithmetic and smooth integration with "usual"
size_t/ptrdiff_t types.
2/ I also would like to test some implementations concerning
automatic differentiation.
I have my own C++ libs, inspired, but ~20% faster than Adept:
http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/clouds/adept/
and I would like to know how I can do that in D
Well... That is the idea... I hope I will get some results and
I will be happy to share if it is something interesting.

Ah I get what you mean, you can do that without using a special
type.
struct Vector(T, Args...) if(Args.length == 1)
{
static if(is(Args[0] == size_t))
{
size_t size;
}
else static if(Args[0] != 0) // would error if it's a
type that's not size_t
{
enum size = Args[0];
}
else
{
static assert(0);
}
}
Vector!(int, 10) a;
Vector!(int, size_t) b; // both work with IntegralConstant
could use __traits(compiles) to see if it's not a type, for that
second static if. Which would probably be better, so if you pass
a float or something, it won't give a weird error.
