Should you want to, this is what it should look like: ~this() { (cast(void delegate(T) @nogc)((T t){ // `destroy` will also write .init but we have no functions in druntime // for deterministic finalization and memory releasing for now. .destroy(t); }))(Scoped_payload); } If and when this issue is resolved, this should work: interface I { public void ap(); } void exec(I i) { i.ap; } auto scopedAnon(T)(lazy T dummy) if (is(T == class)) { import std.typecons; return scoped!T(); } unittest { auto i = scopedAnon(new class I { int tr = 43; override void ap() { import std.stdio; tr.writeln; } }); exec(i); } -- Biotronic
