With that kind of variadics, you're not dealing with a
template. A (run-time) variadic delegate is an actual
delegate, i.e. a value that can be passed around. But the
variadic stuff is a bit weird to use, and probably affects
performance.
By the way, I'm not even sure, if variadics work in my case. I
have a strange struct of a random generator, which cannot be
copied, and I have no idea how to pass it to a variadic
function:
import std.stdio;
import mir.random;
void main()
{
Random rndGen = Random(unpredictableSeed);
fun(rndGen);
}
void fun(...)
{
}
Yields "... is not copyable because it is annotated with
@disable" :)
Random is copy @disabled to prevent incorrect use.
Yes, I'm aware of this...
You need to pass it by ref or pointer. I dont know if you can
pass variables as ref to a variadic, but you should be able to
pass it by address.
fun(&rndGen);
No, you can't pass a ref into a variadic... if the test above is
written correct.
And no, I can't pass it by adress, as I don't know apriori,
whether the very parameter which gets the random generator is
already a part of the variadic parameters, or a well defined ref
parameter.
Especially, there are some functions for both cases. While the
argument list remains the same, the acceptor part is meant to
work with it somehow.
The other way around would be, to manipulate the argument list,
which is shared...
