You're right - thank you for this constructive criticism. The post was originally written as a DIP (D Improvement Proposal), and arguably suffers a little because of that.

Since Cython compiles to C++, it can use C++ templates directly, without the need for creating aliases to the specific instantiations you're gonna use. As far as I understand, you'll still have to write Cython bindings, though: https://cython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/userguide/wrappi...

Walter got a bit confused here - what he's describing is the owner/borrow system he's proposed to compete with Rust. This is unrelated to named parameters.

Both your convenience function and the quotes in the type name can be removed via the use of static opDispatch:

struct FlagImpl(string name) { bool value; alias value this; }

struct Flag { alias opDispatch(string name) = FlagImpl!name; }

struct Yes { static auto opDispatch(string name)() { return FlagImpl!name(true); } }

struct No { static auto opDispatch(string name)() { return FlagImpl!name(false); } }

void fun(Flag.foo a) {} // Look ma, no quotes!

unittest { fun(Yes.foo); fun(Flag.foo(true)); }
