Bug 10383 – redundant splitter implementations conflict with each other

Test case: import std.algorithm; import std.array; void main() { string s; s.splitter(); //here } Output: bug_split.d(7): Error: std.array.splitter!(immutable(char)).splitter at C:\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\array.d(1390) conflicts with std.algorithm.splitter!(string). Note the contents of both files: //std.algorithm: auto splitter(Range)(Range input) if (isSomeString!Range) { return splitter!(std.uni.isWhite)(input); } //std.array auto splitter(C)(C[] s) if(isSomeString!(C[])) { return std.algorithm.splitter!(std.uni.isWhite)(s); } 2 exactly the same forwarders. The solution is to have the splitter in std.array be an explicit alias of one in std.algorithm.

I'll fix this shortly. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 6730 ***
