Hey, thanks! This makes sense :-)
Am I now wondering... how safe, portable and future proof would this
be? If some future version of D implements a garbage collector capable
of moving objects around the heap, I could get in trouble, right?
Also note that if the pointer in C land is the only reference to the
class, the garbage collector will destroy the instance when it gets
around to it. There's a function GC.addRoot[1] in core.memory that can
make the C struct keep the reference alive.
Of course, if you have other references to the class, this should be
no problem.
