So, it applies to member functions too (for C++)? Just as if you passed an extern(C++) directive to each one? And only their signature/mangling is changed, so that say in gdb for instance, they represent Type::member instead of zzTypezdxqdstuffmember?
Yes. It's a bit more than the mangling that changes. The layout of the class/struct needs to be correct and the this pointer needs to be passed correctly.
Oh, I thought it happened a while ago, like when D2 came out. (Or was D2 recent as well?)
No, D2 was started in something like 2007. The compiler was converted last year in August.
