For code generation purposes, I'd like to pass a type name to base

documentation for class constructor but it does compile:
class A {
static {
int a, b;
}
this(T)() {
}
}
then do something like this:
class B {
this() {
super!B;
}
}
but I got the error:
found ! when expecting ; following statement
sorry I mean define class b as following:
class B : A {
this() {
super!B;
}
}
AFAIK, you can't explicitly use template parameters for constructors, it
has to be IFTI. Ali has the right idea for capturing the type of this.
But it only goes one level deep, it doesn't give you the full derived
type if there are 2 or more levels.
Note, you may want to simply define a separate non-constructor for this
purpose, where you have full control.
