I suspect this isn&#39;t possible in a compiled language like D, but I wonder anyway, has anyone considered partial classes in D? Are they technically possible?<div>How would they work? Would it depend on link-time code generation?</div>
<div>I can imagine an implementation where each &#39;part&#39; occupies a separate allocation, and some pointer in Object or somewhere like that (somewhere near the typeinfo pointer) binds them together.</div><div><br></div>
<div>I often find myself wanting to add some extra pizazz to classes using template/mixin magic, but I may not have control over the original code where it is defined...</div><div>C# at least can do this, and it&#39;s very useful in many situations...</div>
