Interesting what discussed behaviour isn't affects method what 
implements same functionality as dtor and called explictly at 
each appropriate place.


So for dirty fix I just created

```d
void __custom_dtor() const
{ ... }
```

And then called this __custom_dtor at each dtor what uses this 
struct.

Destructor is nothing but a piece of code that is executed when an 
object's life ends. A destructor need not touch any member of the object:


struct S {
  ~this() {
import std.stdio;
writeln("done");
  }
}

void main() {
  immutable a = S();
  auto b = immutable(S)();
}

Both objects are immutable there yet their destructor is executed.

That's true only for destroy(), which gets called only if the programmer 
asks for it. Otherwise, destroyed objects don't get assigned any special 
value.

That's not true. The GC collects objects when there are no references to 
them. The values of the object's members have nothing to do with it.

That immutable qualifier means "this destructor is for immutable objects 
of this type." However, it seems impossible to define two destructors:


  ~this() {
writeln(__FUNCTION__);
  }

  ~this() immutable {
writeln(__FUNCTION__);
  }

Error: destructor `deneme.S.~this` conflicts with destructor 
`deneme.S.~this` at deneme.d(79)


I think this is an unexplored corner of the language. Part of the 
complication may be due to implementations by an earlier compiler 
contributor, who I heard was responsible for qualifiers on constructors. 
Note two different constructors here:


import std.stdio;

struct S {
  this(int) {
writeln(__PRETTY_FUNCTION__);
  }

  this(int) immutable {
writeln(__PRETTY_FUNCTION__);
  }
}

void main() {
  auto a = immutable(S)(0);
  auto b = S(1);
}

I bet the problem here is that the implementation in the compiler is 
half-baked on these qualifiers.

Nope, seems to go against the very promise it's making

Labelling `~this()` as const or immutable means it won't affect 
the state of the object, but it will, by it's very nature.


That's why I said it's not too much of a stretch to imagine why 
they're disallowed entirely.

Well, it would be really weird if destructors successfully 
executed for some class of `immutable` qualified objects but 
didn't for others.


Not too much of a stretch to imagine that destruction for 
immutable objects was outright disallowed.


Someone who can explain this behaviour more thoroughly would be 
much appreciated ๐Ÿ˜Š


Maybe we should allow finalizers to mutate their instance?

I think since `immutable` objects are kept in Read Only 
Storage, you can't call destructors on them since the objects 
don't get erased when `~this` is called, but rather they get 
assigned their `.init` value, which tells the GC that they can 
be collected.


`immutable class` has nothing to do with it, even the following 
fails to compile:

```d



struct S
{
~this() immutable {}
}

void main()
{
S s = S();
}

Error: `immutable` method `onlineapp.S.~this` is not callable 
using a mutable object

```


Correction:
`immutable S s = S();` inside the `void main()`
