Description Timothee Cour 2018-02-20 21:55:37 UTC 
/Users/timothee/git_clone/D/dcv/source/dcv/core/utils.d(65,13): Error: template instance `Slice!(cast(SliceKind)2, [1], IotaIterator)` does not match template declaration Slice(SliceKind kind, ulong[] packs, Iterator) if (packs.sum < 255 && !(kind == Canonical && (packs == [1])))

2 annoyances:

* `Slice!(cast(SliceKind)2, [1], IotaIterator)` is not syntax highlighted somehow (unlike `Slice(SliceKind kind, ulong[] packs, Iterator) if (packs.sum < 255 && !(kind == Canonical && (packs == [1])))` which gets highlighted)

* cast(SliceKind)2 should be converted to its symbolic representation (as is case for Canonical in kind == Canonical)
Comment 1 Timothee Cour 2018-02-20 22:05:54 UTC 
NOTE:
for context here's the enum:
```
enum SliceKind
{
    /// A slice has strides for all dimensions.
    universal,
    /// A slice has >=2 dimensions and row dimension is contiguous.
    canonical,
    /// A slice is a flat contiguous data without strides.
    contiguous,
}
```

I'd expect to see:
s/cast(SliceKind)2/contiguous or even better, SliceKind.contiguous

The syntax highlight thing is fixed, and the enum thing is a duplicate of 8044 for which I just opened a PR.
