At present, there is no difference between a member function which is private and one which is final private. All private functions are non-virtual and are not overridable. So, final does nothing. If/When dmd is updated to match TDPL and make private functions virtual and overridable, then private functions _will_ be virtual and overridable, and final will be required in order to make them non-overridable again (and assuming that the private function in question does not override a private funtion from a base class, the compiler should be able to optimize it so that it's non-virtual just like private currently is). But for now, putting final on a private function does nothing. - Jonathan M Davis
