I get a deprecation warning with @Override, but I was unable to find the proper way to do it.
Am I meant to add override before the method like this?
>override public void startThread(Thread t, int pri) {
>    ...
>}
Am I meant to wrap the entire method in override { } like this?
> override {

Both of them compile, so I'm wondering which to use. Is override {} supposed to be for adding multiple methods inside to avoid writing override before each method, or is putting override in front of the method without brackets just wrong?

What error message exactly are you getting and on what code?

Both styles you put there should work equally well.

I had no error on the examples I posted, only when using @Override previously. It just says to use override attribute instead of @Override

source\game\client.d(8,20): Deprecation: implicitly overriding base class method game.GameWindow.startThread with game.client.Client.startThread deprecated; add 'override' attribute
source\game\client.d(7,3): Error: undefined identifier 'Override'

Yeah, that just means use the override keyword on the method. There is no @Override thing, it is a plain lowercase keyword.

Note that it doesn't say _instead of Override_. Override is an undefined symbol in your code. @Override is user defined attribute (UDA) syntax. The programmer is responsible for defining the semantics of user defined attributes.

Unlike in Java, D's override indicator doesn't look like an annotation, it's just a keyword placed before a method along the same lines as "static" or "public" or "protected".
