Hi All,
is there any (easy) way to clone an object or any other classes?

Simple answer: No.

Complicated answer: Yes, but you have to write it yourself.

Here's a nice starting point. You can use tupleof to get all members of 
a class. Note that this doesn't deal with superclasses, and members of 
superclasses are not copied:

T clone(T)(T old) {
        auto newobject = new T();
        foreach (int i, _; old.tupleof) {
                newobject.tupleof[i] = old.tupleof[i];
        }
        return newobject;
}

cloned = clone(yourobject);
