Why this code doesn't write two identical lines?

A reduced example of where it goes wrong:
class B {}
struct A {
B b = new B;
}
unittest {
A a1, a2;
assert(a1 == a2);
}
In other words, when you initialize the class reference in your
struct, it has to be a value that's known at compile-time. So the
compiler creates a single instance of B, and every instance of A
points to it. So this line:
A a = A(A(1), 2);
first appends 1 to b.data, then appends 2 to b.data, and it's the
same b in both cases.
Not knowing what you're attempting to do, I'm not sure how to fix
your problem. But if what I've described above does indeed cover
it, initializing b in the constructor is the way to get it to
work.
