Nope. __gshared isn't even part of the type so it can't do that.__gshared int a; void main() { foo(a);
But this should fail since foo doesn't take shared?
__gshared is a way of declaring a C-like global variable, but D does not - in general - support accessing it in a C-like way. My advice is to cast to shared before use, unless you're totally sure you know what other threads will be doing.
Why isn't it always typed as shared?
