Thanks a lot for opening the request on his behalf.
(We might modernize Bugzilla, so stay tuned)

Does your colleague know about the GC series?https://dlang.org/blog/the-gc-series

Also did your colleague find https://dlang.org/articles/cpptod.html?

Maybe this page could then be expanded.

> Current solution, make a function myDelete that calls dtor and free by hand.

The preferred way is to use make and dispose from std.experimental.allocator - they are the D analogies to malloc and free though a lot smarter (and dispose calls the destructor).

He's interacting with existing C++ code, and doesn't want to have conflicting allocation strategies. It's gamedev, so custom allocation mechanisms are already in use.

He did find the cpptod, read it, but he suggested there were still questions. I'll dig for his thoughts at lunch tomorrow :)

I'll point him to std.experimental.allocator.

Thanks!
