I have an interface where I have a classes embedded in it's scope

I'm trying to make an instance of it like:
auto tester = new IExample.Tester();
And I get the above error.
Hm... not sure how this works for inner classes of Interfaces, but if
it's anything like inner classes of classes, then they have a hidden
'outer' pointer pointing at the owning instance of the class.
This allows access to the outer class's members. So you need an instance
to instantiate.
I bet it's the same for interfaces.
What you probably want is a static class, which will remove that connection:
static class Tester
