what about this:

---------- file.d
class Foo {

   private string text;

}

----------- file.di

class Foo {
   call();

and then I want to inherit from it (I have access to file.di only)
class Bar : Foo { // I cannot due I have misleading information about size of 
Foo

}


If you don't add data members to Bar, it will work. If you do add data members, then the compiler needs to know the data members in Foo. This is the same in C++ .h files.

You could specify Foo as an interface,

  https://dlang.org/spec/interface.html

and then Bar can inherit from Foo without needing any knowledge of Foo's data members.
