no notLessThan for 2 strings? also no Assert.greaterEqualThan, Assert.lessEqualThan?

Error: template instance fluentasserts.core.base.Assert.opDispatch!("notLessThan", string, string) error instantiating

[gedaiu]

is it possible to share the assert that triggered this error? This will help me to debug it. Also, it should work with the last release instead of the master branch.

}

Also I found there is no Assert.greaterEqualThan, Assert.lessEqualThan even for int?

@gedaiu

ping.

Hit this problem again, we have notLessThan(), and Assert.notGreaterThan(), can we add alias to greaterEqualThan(), and lessEqualThan().

Thanks.

I just added those 2 operations on the master branch and issued a new release v0.14.0-alpha.2 with those new operations.

I have mixed feelings for allowing lessThan and greaterThan to work with strings. I will research how other assert frameworks call this operations for strings. Maybe there is a better name.

If you want to enable those operations for strings, the v0.14 has a new way to extend the predefined asserts: https://github.com/gedaiu/fluent-asserts/blob/master/source/fluentasserts/core/lifecycle.d#L39

This should enable greaterThan comparisons for strings:

import fluentasserts.core.operations.registry;

static this() {
    Registry.instance.register("string", "string", "greaterThan", &greaterThan!string);
}
