I'm currently using the rtInfo template inside object.d to generate RTTI
information for my own little rtti system. It is working really well so
far, the only issue I found is as follows:
If a POD struct (which does not contain any reference types, pointers,
arrays etc) is placed in a library. And that library is then linked
against a executable, the rtInfo of the POD struct will be lost. It will
be generated by the compiler when compiling the library, but for some
reason it is gone after the final binary is compiled and linked. But as
soon as I add a void* pointer to that struct everythings works fine.
Any idea what could be happening there and how to fix it? If the linker
stripts the rtInfo out, why does adding a void* make a difference?
