When using reflection to obtain the fields of a class/struct,
is there any guarantee that the order is the same as the order
the fields are defined?
Yes they should always come in lexical order.
For classes, the spec disagrees, even though it might be true
using current compilers.
https://dlang.org/spec/class.html#fields
"The D compiler is free to rearrange the order of fields in a
class to optimally pack them in an implementation-defined manner.
... Explicit control of field layout is provided by struct/union
types, not classes."
