I've been trying to write a plugin for TextMate in Swift. TextMate is written in C++ with the GUI code in Objective-C. It's quite difficult and currently it's probably 50% Objective-C++ code and 50% Swift. Not taking in to account the C++ declarations for the TextMate code I need to interface with.
Interesting, I haven't tried to interface with C++ from Swift yet. Sounds like you have gained some insights that could be valuable for Swift/D integration.
That Swift doesn't support exceptions is annoying too, make it even more difficult.
Yes, if your C++ code base/libraries throws, that could be a problem. But it should be ok if you write your own engine that don't use exceptions?
