Yes, the true problem arrives on the operations like concat "~"
that call some internal function to do that with strings.
Only if it is string ~ string. If it is your type, that's where
opBinary and opBinaryRight come in.
YourString ~ built_in_string = YourString.opBinary(string op :
"~")(immutable(char)[] rhs);
built_in_string ~ YourString = YourString.opBinaryRight(string op
: "~")(immutable(char)[] lhs);
so you can make it work.
Though btw I would actually suggest leaving concat
unimplemented... it is so hard to manage the memory for it
without the GC. IMO better off just appending to an existing
thing; do ~= instead of ~.
iep, this seems a real problem. ;/
yeah we have no implict ctors :(
