I know it's imposible.
is there's a way if i want to create an interface that have 
method with return type value is equals with return type of 
std.palallelism.task

eg.
interface IWorker{
   auto activate(); //on implementation class activate return 
std.parallelism.task
}

What is the replacement of auto on that interface?

Thank you!

You want to use ReturnType from std.traits.

task() is a template function so you have to define its template 
params or do a template interface, i guess.

#1:

void f() {
}

interface IWorker{
   ReturnType!(task!f) activate(); //on implementation class 
activate return std.parallelism.task
}

#2:

interface IWorker(T, Args...){
   ReturnType!(task!(T, Args)) activate(); //on implementation 
class activate return std.parallelism.task
}
