I've created a small Windows based program using a win32 library I found online.   That part is working just fine.

I've also created a second file (called util.d) and within it defined a class called MyData (with a member function called Read()).

Within my main program I instantiate and try to call the Read() method.  No errors are generated but nothing gets called.   Right now the Read() method just does a throw so I know something is going on.

What am I missing here?   I would think the compiler would generate an error if something was missing.

winmain.d:
---------------------------------
extern(Windows)
LRESULT WndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{

    switch (message)
    {
        case WM_CREATE:
	    f.Read() ;
            return 0 ;

 /* ... */

} // WndProc



util.d:
----------------------------------

class MyData {
public:
    void Read() {
        throw new Exception("No!", __FILE__, __LINE__) ;
    } // void Read()
} // class Data

Doing more testing and debugging found that the value of the instance is 0, which leads me to believe something is happening with the instantiation.   Back to the books I suppose.
