Examples:

mir.conv: to extension.

import mir.conv: to;
import mir.small_string;
alias S = SmallString!32;

// Floating-point numbers are formatted to
// the shortest precise exponential notation.
assert(123.0.to!S == "123.0");
assert(123.to!(immutable S) == "123");
assert(true.to!S == "true");
assert(true.to!string == "true");

assert((cast(S)"str")[] == "str");

Examples:

mir.conv: to extension.

import mir.conv: to;
import mir.small_string;
alias S = SmallString!32;

auto str = S("str");
assert(str.to!(const(char)[]) == "str"); // GC allocated result
assert(str.to!(char[]) == "str"); // GC allocated result

Examples:

ditto

import mir.conv: to;
import mir.small_string;
alias S = SmallString!32;

// Floating-point numbers are formatted to
// the shortest precise exponential notation.
assert(123.0.to!string == "123.0");
assert(123.to!(char[]) == "123");

assert(S("str").to!string == "str"); // GC allocated result

string text(string separator = "", Args...)(auto ref Args args) if (Args.length > 0);

Concatenated string results

Examples:

const i = 100;
assert(text("str ", true, " ", i, " ", 124.1) == "str true 100 124.1", text("str ", true, " ", 100, " ", 124.1));
assert(text!" "("str", true, 100, 124.1) == "str true 100 124.1");

template StreamFormatOp(C)

Examples:

auto name = "D";

Examples:

auto name = "D"w;

ref W print(C = char, W)(return ref scope W w, char c) if (isSomeChar!C);

Prints escaped character in the form 'c'.

Examples:

import mir.appender: scopedBuffer;
auto w = scopedBuffer!char;
assert(w
    .print('\n')
    .print('\'')
    .print('a')
    .print('\xF4')
