That can't happen.
Why is that?
(1) Too much breakage, (2) would disallow a ton of correct
code, (3)
no reasonable alternative to propose. We'd essentially hang

out to dry. -- Andrei
Isn't this what we're already doing by (eventually) getting
rid of class
dtors?
Not even close. (1) A lot less breakage, (2) disallowed code
was
already not guaranteed to work, (3) reasonable alternatives
exist.

I have 165k lines of code to review for that change... I would
not call
it a minor breakage...
I didn't. I said a lot less that straight out disallowing
struct members. -- Andrei
I would also add one point, just because it is not so obvious:
I'll be more than happy to review my company code, if the
proposed solutions about finalisation in class/struct turn out to
take D one step forward being a better programming language.
