I can't seem to get it to work as a return type, but
interestingly it does work as an out/pass by ref parameter.
Probably for returning the struct it needs some allocation

The spec says that there is no equivalent to type[]. You get

The spec says that there is no equivalent to type[]. You get a
type* instead.
D under dmd/Win10/64-bit currently seems to store strings
(slices) internally like so:
```d
static struct DString {
size_t length;
immutable(char)* ptr;
}
static assert(DString.sizeof == string.sizeof);
string s = "abcde";
DString d;
memcpy(, , s.sizeof);
assert(d.length ==
