Not only that, casting away from immutable (or too, the error
message
is not informative at all) you get error's along the line of
"opEquals
doesn't work with immutable arguments"...
Why is it that cumbersome? It seems like D took a good idea and
ruined
it with all that const-stuff.
I have the feeling that I've completely missed the whole idea
on how
concurrency in D should work. Is it normal that you have to
either
mess with immutable or with the broken shared?
Am I implementing everything wrong?
Use std.parallelism. It has everything that (I think) you need,
e.g. support for parallel for, tasks and more.
