What's the D way of allocating memory? Do you guys just use
malloc() and free()? Or are there functions in phobos that
should be used? I just need a buffer of variable length
allocating every now and then.
Allocating some garbage collected memory:
an array:
SomeType[] a = new SomeType[somePositiveInteger];
or
SomeType[][] m = new SomeType[][](somePosInt, someOtherPosInt);
a class
SomeClass b = new SomeClass(/*constructor args*/)
Sure, you can use malloc and free, but then of course you have to
manage everything yourself
