I'm not sure I follow as to why this is fixing the linked bug when the bug talks about DMD giving no warning about the comparison of different enum types when this function is about enum manifest constants. |

@JackStouffer The idea is to have the error message say: "Cannot compare unrelated enums, use std.conv.representation to convert each or both to their representation type". |

This function gives a safe way to convert the enums being compared to a comparable type. |

Ah, ok. Be careful though, as Phobos already has a function called representation in std.string. |

In order to fix https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6227, we need to recommend the appropriate way of comparing different enum types if the user wants so. This supports that.
