Can I create an instance of A without calling a constructor? (see below) Use case: for generic deserialiaztion, when the deserialization library encounters a class without default constructor for example (it knows what the fields should be set to, but doesn't know how to construct the object).
class A{ int x=2; this(int x){ this.x=x; } } This came up here: https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-d/issues/54#issuecomment-104136148 I provide some hacky solution for that in that thread but I suspect it's not safe and something is missing.
