Im trying to implement a variadic template wrapper of the loki typelist.
Merging two typelists in loki-style is easy, but im having problems with merge in variadic-template style.
This is my implementation (Simplified, without push_back , index_of , ... , methods).
template<typename... Ts>
struct dl32TypeList;
template<typename HEAD , typename... TAIL>
struct dl32TypeList<HEAD,TAIL...>
{
static const unsigned int size = sizeof...(TAIL) + 1;
using value = dl32Loki_like_TypeList<HEAD, typename dl32TypeList<TAIL...>::value>;
};
template<>
struct dl32TypeList<>
{
using value = dl32NoType;
static const unsignedint size = 0;
};
I want something like:
template<typename OTHER_TYPELIST>
using merge = dl32TypeList<HEAD , TAIL... , typename OTHER_TYPELIST::???>;
And this is the problem: We cannot store variadic template args as a using/typedef, so i have any idea about how i can do this. (Note the OTHER_TYPELIST::???).

I don't know what Loki or DL32 are, and it's not clear you should be implementing anything at all.
std::tuple is a common tool for type lists. It is designed as a runtime storage container but works as a compile-time utility as long as the types are complete. Here is one way to catenate tuples:
template< typename ... t >
struct tuple_cat
{ typedef decltype( std::tuple_cat( std::declval< t >() ... ) ) type; };
If you want to do it manually, try partial specialization:
template< typename ... t >
struct type_list {};
template< typename ta, typename tb >
struct type_cat;
template< typename ... a, typename ... b >
struct type_cat< type_list< a ... >, type_list< b ... > >
{ typedef type_list< a ..., b ... > type; };
As for the size member, you can make a universal metafunction to solve the problem once and for all.
template< typename >
struct count_types;
template< template< typename ... > class t, typename ... a >
struct count_types< t< a ... > >
{ static constexpr std::size_t value = sizeof ... a; };
