so '&foo.bar();' works the same as 'foo.bar();'?
with pointers, D automatically rewrites expressions like this:
f.fooMethod()
to this:
(*f).fooMethod()
which is why you're able to index an object-pointer-pointer
(Foo*) the same way as an object-pointer (Foo).
Most built-in D types have value semantics, so it's
understandable that you wouldn't expect classes to be reference
types.
Associative arrays are also reference types, FYI.
Structs on the other hand are value types; if you're new to the
language make sure you familiarise yourself with the differences
between structs and classes.
