To answer the OP, what he wants is an array of different
RedBlackTrees. Since RedBlackTree is a class, his code is not far off
from something that works. This does compile, and produces an Object[]:
auto arr = [
redBlackTree(Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y", string, "z")(1, 2, "abc")),
redBlackTree(Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y", int, "z")(1, 2, 3))
];
Then you have to cast each object into it's appropriate type to use
it. That is not as easy, as you have to know the exact instantiation
of tree type.
In this case, I would say Phobos lacks an appropriate interface
definition, what do you think?
But what is the common interface between those 2 types? Even in
Dcollections, where RedBlackTree came from, there was no interfaces that
didn't specify the type they were dealing with. In other words, there is
no common interface for sets of 2 different types.
