I'm coming from a C++ background so I'm not too used to

close the socket, and the socket object goes out of scope.
Thank you for the advice everyone.
The hardest part about learning D isn't the language, or how to
program, it's unlearning what you know from C++ and learning the
proper way to do things in D. I've tried D several times before
and eventually stopped when I get to the stage of "how do I do
this c++ thing in d" proves to be hard.
Instead this time, I've started writing D programs as "better C"
and then slowly started adding in higher level d features. It's
going much better as I'm no longer trying so hard to write bad
C++ in D :)
