No, I only seem to get this error to print when in the presence of other errors, but as far as I can tell this error should not be printing and only confuses things. Really annoying when it pops up and really has nothing to do with the actual problem... very unhelpful... --

Hm.. definitely the error is confusing, but the code itself has another error (hwCursorRef is not defined). Do you have a reproduction that doesn't involve another error? --

I would also like to see what is in there, but even without that, the error
report is at least misleading.
Note the error once again:
Error: struct libep.componentdesc.ComponentDesc destructors, postblits and
invariants are not allowed in overlapping fields info and baseClass
And the struct ComponentDesc:
struct ComponentDesc
{
ComponentInfo info;
SharedString baseClass;
}
Is there any way to define ComponentInfo or SharedString such that info and
baseClass overlap? I wouldn't think so.

--- Comment #3 from Kenji Hara ---
Minimized example code that compiler shows the error message.
struct X
{
this(this) {}
// or: ~this() {}
// or: invariant {}
}
union U // Error
{
X x;
int overlapping;
}
struct S // Error
{
union
{
X x;
int overlapping;
}
}
For U or S, compiler cannot generate destructors, postblits, or invariants
automatically, because the field x typed X overlapping with other fields.

I don't see any postblits, invariants, etc. anywhere either. Can you elaborate there? Maybe a minimal reproduction? --
