If I have a class from D.
How would you use that class in C++?
Like what's the correct approach to this.
Would it work just by doing "extern(C++)" or will that only
work for D to use C++ classes?
If you have
foo.d
----
class Foo
{
int aMember;
void aMethod() { ... };
final aFinalMethod() { ... };
}
----
to expose that to C++ you need to add extern(C++) too Foo and use
it in C++ as a Foo*
foo.h
----
class Foo
{
int aMember;
virtual void aMethod();
void aFinalMethod();
};
----
If you can't/don't want to do that you can always pass it around
in C++ as an opaque pointer with functions that call the member
functions and get/set the variables (i.e. the pimpl strategy).
