Bug 20915 – __traits(allMembers) results include custom version identifiers, which is unusable

There's no way to identify a custom version identifier as such. Example: --- module test; import std.traits : isCallable; version(all) version = my_version; private bool onlyFuncs() { bool result = true; foreach (member; __traits(allMembers, mixin(__MODULE__))) { static if (!is(mixin(member) == module) && !(is(mixin(member)))) static if (__traits(getOverloads, mixin(__MODULE__), member, true).length == 0) { pragma(msg, "`", member, "` ", "is not a type or a function"); result = false; break; } } return result; } static assert(onlyFuncs()); void main(){} --- Either custom version identifiers should be excluded from the traits results or we should be able to use them with a new variant of the isExpression, e.g `static if (is(mixin(member) == version))`

Instead of static if (!is(mixin(member) == module) && !(is(mixin(member)))) use static if (is(typeof(mixin(member))))

thanks Stanislav, that fixes the problem I encountered in particular. Generally speaking the issue is still valid. There's no way to detect that a member is a version identifier so using it this way: mixin("version(", member, ")"); is not possible.

__traits(allMembers) shouldn't be picking up version identifiers.
