Hey all,
For those of you that doesn't know, Objective-C primarily uses reference
counting to manage memory. With the latest releases of clang, it also
supports automatic reference counting, whereby the compiler
automatically inserts retain/release messages ("calls" if you don't know
Obj-C) into the code.
There's a complete spec for it at:
http://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html
My main reason for posting is curiosity - how feasible would it be to
have something like this in D?
There are obviously a few issues that would need looking at, a way of
marking weak references for example.
