Actually, Dispatcher could look like this:
struct Dispatcher {
struct opDispatch(string prefix, alias context = __CONTEXT__)
{
alias opDispatch(string name) = getMethod!(context,
prefix~"_"~name);
}

Of course D can! However, it's not really pretty, and I think I
found a bug in the process.
This is my code that compiles and runs:
void X_A(int i) {}
void X_A(string s) {}
void X_B(int i) {}
void X_C_Q(int i) {}
unittest {
with (Dispatcher.X!({})) {
A(1);
A("a");
B(2);
C_Q(3);
}
}
template getMethod(alias x, string name) {
static if (__traits(hasMember, x, name)) {
alias getMethod = __traits(getMember, x, name);
} else static if (x.stringof[0..7] == "module ") {
import std.meta : AliasSeq;
alias getMethod = AliasSeq!();
} else {
alias getMethod = getMethod!(__traits(parent, x), name);
}
}
struct Dispatcher {
template opDispatch(string prefix) {
static auto opDispatch(alias context)() {
struct WithObject {
auto opDispatch(string name, A...)(A a) {
struct OverloadCaller {
auto opCall(Args...)(Args args) {
return getMethod!(context,
prefix~"_"~name)(args);
}
}
OverloadCaller result;
return result;
}
}
return WithObject();
}
}
}
So, the ugly:
1) Instead of just Dispatcher.X, we need to give Dispatcher a
context from where to look for X_. That's the curly
brackets in Dispatcher.X!({}).
2) The bug I mentioned. The whole OverloadCaller deal is a
silly workaround for WithObject's opDispatch not being called
correctly by DMD. That's also why WithObject's opDispatch takes
(A...)(A a). I'll be filing this, of course.
3) with doesn't correctly handle static opDispatch. I'll be
filing a bug for that as well.
We could fix 1) by introducing a new magic identifier -
something like __CONTEXT__, which would work somewhat like
__FUNCTION__, but be useful for reflection with __traits. I've
played a little with this idea, but I'm not ready to make a PR
with it.
With 1), 2) and 3) fixed, the code would look like this (only
changed code included):
unittest {
with (Dispatcher.X) {
A(1);
A("a");
B(2);
C_Q(3);

struct Dispatcher {
struct opDispatch(string prefix, alias context =
__CONTEXT__) {
static auto opDispatch(string name, Args...)(Args args)
{
return getMethod!(context, prefix~"_"~name)(args);
}
}
}
I think that's kinda neat, TBH.

Thanks, I haven't messed with it but it by your examples it
should do what I want...
I actually probably need the use of .'s turned in to _'s... so I
can write stuff like
A.B.C.D and it all goes to X.A_B_C_D.
I'm not sure if A.B.C.D would get dispatched as a whole or just
in part though(e.g., is it treated as A.(B.(C.D)) or (A.B).C).D
or A.B.C.D) which would require some type of chaining dispatcher
I guess).
In any case it helps with my specific problem. I like the idea of
_CONTEXT_ and it might be usable in other areas.
Thanks.

Re: emulate with
imo for parts of names such things will never appear.. names, subnames, overloading.. hell no but I want Kotlin lambdas https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/lambdas.html I want more: Function literals with receiver it: implicit name of a single parameter Passing a lambda to the last parameter than will appear https://ask.ericlin.info/post/2017/06/subtle-differences-between-kotlins-with-apply-let-also-and-run/ https://medium.com/tompee/idiomatic-kotlin-lambdas-with-receiver-and-dsl-3cd3348e1235
