I just figured out how to store a reference: @safe: auto x(ref int a) { struct A { ref int xa() { return a; } } return A(); } void main() { import std.stdio; int b = 10; auto a = x(b); a.xa = 20; writeln(b); //Prints 20 }
I have no idea if this is a right thing to do. Can someone tell me if this is idiomatic D, and whether there're any catches to this method or not?
Thanks.
