Hi,

I need some help understanding dmd and I'm wondering where I should ask.

I have made a multiple aliasthis implementation that currently only works for structs. If I try to use a class then the compiler segfaults in .
The implementation basically just changes aggregate.aliasthis to be aggregate.aliasthis(Type expectedType) and then that function picks a matching aliasthis option and returns it.

Thanks,
Rory

The segfault was because I forgot to mark one of my new methods as "final", and it was messing with the poffset in baseOf.

I think this is relevant to anyone mixing D and C++, not sure if its for everyone because I'm not sure where poffset comes from. Basically if a struct works and a class causes the compiler to segfault in baseOf when compiling your module, its probably this.
