I see this code AT THE TOP (MODULE) LEVEL of one of Michel Fortin's D/Objective-C bridge source files and I'm trying to wrap my head around it./** Wrap an object instance within an object of this class. */ static Object objcCreateWrapper(T)(id instance) { // Retain the Objective-C instance prior wrapping it. // It needs to be done prior wrapping so that // invariants holds // after the constructor is called. objc.msg.send!(id)(instance, selector!("retain")); // Create new Wrapper. return new T(instance); } At issues is the keyword "static" in front of the template function. This is not inside of a class, so static does not seem to make sense with what I know about D. Can anyone explain this to me? --Christopher
I'm guessing it has no affect on the code, possible it used to be a static method in a class.
