Reported by vitus to D.learn: http://forum.dlang.org/post/[email protected] ---- void foo()(){} void bar(int){} alias foobar = foo; alias foobar = bar; void main() { foobar(1); /* Error: overload alias 'foo' is not a variable */ } ---- Works when when the call has a leading dot: ---- .foobar(1); ---- Works when the order of the aliases is switched: ---- alias foobar = bar; alias foobar = foo; ----
