I don't know. I haven't suggested this should be implemented.

Right, but please show me an example of how that might be used.

I am not asking that, I'm asking regarding the project mention earlier.

Adding support for C++ to DStep is a long term goal, yes. But the compiler still needs to support those features. Unless DStep is going to generate C wrappers, which I would like to avoid.

What compiler are you referring to? Clang? LDC? DMD?

The D compilers, DMD and LDC.
