Hi,
Is there any more standard way to achieve something to the
effect of:
```d
import std.experimental.allocator;
string* name = theAllocator.make!string;
```
Why do you want that?
Easiest way I know of is to just wrap it in a struct, then `new
that_struct`, which is also a better way for all the use cases
I know.... but those use cases are pretty rare so there's
probably a better way to do what you're trying to do.
I am writing an interpreter and I needed access to a string via
a pointer of type void*
I ended up wrapping it in a struct since I needed another value
anyway. Seems odd that one can't do it in a less unusual way.
Thanks.
