Regarding the D ABI, http://dlang.org/abi.html , I've noticed
that the description for dynamic arrays seems ambiguous:
offset property contents
0 .length array dimension
size_t .ptr pointer to array data
Couldn't "array dimension" be either in bytes or in T units,
for a T[]? It seems to be in bytes (I had assumed it was in T
units). If you agree that it is ambiguous, please tweak the
description to be more precise.
"Dimension" seems to say "number of elements" to me without much
room for interpretation (which it indeed is).
Feel free to open a pull request if you have an idea for a better
description, though.
Best,
