Does using free() on its own not assume access of a global
namespace?
Consider the following:
class Foo {
void free(void*);
void other_method() {
free(ptr); // calls the member function
}
}
The leading dot in D just ensures it calls the global one
instead of a member (if present).
So it could be used without, but you risk conflicts with other
functions. I got it, thanks to both of you.
