Perfect!
I tried that but it mangles wrong.. it includes "S1" which is
not what you want, so I gave up binding to C++ and used C
instead.
pragma(msg, foo.mangleof);
_ZN2S12ns3fooEv
Even if it worked, you'd still see the full name in error
messages and reflection.
It's much harder to undo parts of one complex operation,
compared to composing two simple building blocks. Couldn't we
just add a new parameter to control scope or add a pragma or
something?
there also is an issue when using extern(C) in mixins. see
