Hello All !
Does someone tried to use D without GC ? Do I need to recompile phobos to
disable GC ?
And does some language features such as dynamic arrays and AA rely on GC ?

import std.gc;

disable();
// or
std.gc.disable(); // if you have something named disable already...

Don't know about the Dynamic array and AA stuff...I'd like to know myself...

I don't think enabling/disabling is implemented yet in Phobos ?

But I do know that it is possible to recompile it, without GC.

I haven't looked at it, but I assume that with some tweaking anybody could do it.

What would be nice, is to have a disableGC.txt in the Phobos directory, explaining how to do it.

(It should actually be in the GC documentation, but, hey, one can't expect to get all the money in the world. :-) )

Just do an extern (C): main , and dont call gc_init();
