What you ask for sounds quite similar to COM composition with

Would anybody mind linking to resources which describe COM
composition with delegation? It's been suggested twice in this
thread as an alternative way to develop a non-fragile API, but
anything related to COM is almost invisible to search engines
(even moreso than D itself).
You just need to know Windows development well, as this type of
information requires MSDN navigation skills. :)
The best book about COM programming that I know is,
The Waite Group's COM/DCOM Primer Plus

With ATL the code gets much more simple to get,
