Interfacing to const T& or const T* C++ code

So I was mucking about with calling C++ from D yesterday and was pleasantly surprised that this worked: D: struct Foo { int i; int j; } extern(C++) void useFoo(ref const(Foo) foo); C++: struct Foo { int i; int j; }; void useFoo(const Foo& foo) { ... } In fact, omitting const

Atila Neves: D: struct Foo { int i; int j; } extern(C++) void useFoo(ref const(Foo) foo); C++: struct Foo { int i; int j; }; void useFoo(const Foo& foo) { ... } This doesn't look very safe because D const is transitive, unlike the C++ const. So in the C++ code you can mut
