This is going to be quick: Is it possible to allocate and 
initialize an int in the same line?

int* p = new int(5);

I haven't found a way to 1 liner it. Is it possible?
Do I have to two liner it?

int* p = new int();
*p = 5;

Thanks.

Firstly I thought this thread is purely about syntax. However, 
after rereading I think it is about problem of allocation on GC 
heap without default initialization. If I understood it right, 
possible solution is:

struct S
{
   ulong[500_000] array = void;
   void load(ulong value)
   {
      foreach (i, ref ulong v; array)
      {
         array[i] = value;
      }
   }
}

void main()
{
   // int* p = new int, x = ((*p=5) == 5) ? null : null;
   // assert(*p == 5);
   auto s = new S;
   s.load(5);
}
