Hello,
I'm trying to use `gdb` to debug D binaries, but I'm having
trouble accessing the methods of a struct or class. It seems
that `gdb` doesn't see them.

Looking forward to your answers,

Hello, while I never evaluate calls during debugging I've managed
to find
a way : you can call the mangled name so for
```d
#!dmd -g
module a;
import std.stdio;
struct S
{
int myPrint(){return 8;}
}
pragma(msg, S.myPrint.mangleof);
int main(string[] args)
{
S s;
return 0;
}
```
in gdb CLI
```bash
p (int) _D1a1S7myPrintMFZi(s)
$1 = 8
```
works. Note that for some reasons writefln causes a crash, that's
why I've modified the example.
The problem is that my workaround does not scale better than your.
