I just manged to get all tests passing on all platforms. Now the first step of D/Objective-C has been merged [1][2]. The only thing that's supported for now is calling Objective-C instance methods from D.

I want to give special thanks to Michel Fortin who did the original implementation. I also want to thank Walter, Daniel and all others who reviewed the code.

Thank you.

Is there any documentation available yet?

No, no official documentation. You can have a look at the DIP [1], but that contains a lot more than what's currently implemented. I recommend having a look at the tests, this one [2] for example.

You can create instances with the help of the Objective-C runtime, have a look at one of the tests [1].
