I don't know. But it's open for getting in to problems, like I mentioned in my previous post.

Actually I have. I have an old repository on dsource [1] which contains bindings for a bunch of Apple frameworks, including CoreFoundation. Although the bindings for the Objective-C frameworks uses a bridge and not D/Objective-C. But the bindings for any C framework should work fine. The bindings are written in D1, they might need some minor modifications to work with D2.

Maybe you will be interested in some of my work here:
https://github.com/yglukhov/cocoa.d
This is a lightweight dynamic binding to any Obj-C framework. Also it allows "subclassing" obj-c classes.
Not for production use yet ;)

Actually no. I rather use D/Objective-C [1], [2] which allows D to bind to Objective-C classes and methods with extern (Objective-C), just as with C functions. It's mostly done, it just needs some cleanup and merge the latest changes before I can create a pull request. This way the compiler generates the same code as the Objective-C compiler would, no additional overhead.

That's great Jacob, I hope that this will happen soon!
Thanks for all the great job on that side of the language.

Thanks, no problem. You should thank Michel Fortin, he's done most of the work.
