----- struct S1 { T get(T)() if (is(T == float)) { } } struct S2 { auto get(alias value)() { return S1.get!(typeof(value)); } } struct S3 { auto get(alias value)() { return get!(typeof(value)); } T get(T)() if (is(T == float)) { return T.init; } } void main() { // Error: template instance get!int does not match template declaration get(T)() if (is(T == float)) S1.get!int; // Error: template instance get!int does not match template declaration get(T)() if (is(T == float)) S2.get!1; // Error: cannot resolve type for this.get!int S3.get!1; } ----- Observations: S2.get calls into S1.get, and creates a nice error message. However in S3 the get templates are overloaded against each other, and this causes the diagnostic to become bad. S3.get should have the same diagnostic as S2.get.
