The initial range wrapped as a SortedRange with its predicates converted to an equivalent single predicate.
import std.algorithm.mutation : SwapStrategy; static struct Point { int x, y; } auto pts1 = [ Point(0, 0), Point(5, 5), Point(0, 1), Point(0, 2) ]; auto pts2 = [ Point(0, 0), Point(0, 1), Point(0, 2), Point(5, 5) ]; multiSort!("a.x < b.x", "a.y < b.y", SwapStrategy.unstable)(pts1); assert(pts1 == pts2);
Sorts a range by multiple keys.
The call multiSort!("a.id < b.id", "a.date > b.date")(r) sorts the range r by id ascending, and sorts elements that have the same id by date descending. Such a call is equivalent to sort!"a.id != b.id ? a.id < b.id : a.date > b.date"(r), but multiSort is faster because it does fewer comparisons (in addition to being more convenient).
