Hi, since std.container is now part of the DMD compiler and class
allocators/deallocaters are no longer part of the language, the way
to go now, as far as I understand now, it to use tightArray.
So, how to use tightArray to allocate structs and classes from a
specific memory pool? Will such allocations be under GC control or not?
For example: How do I ensure that an allocation is done from a
memory-mapped file area?
Has noone a tipp for me how to make & use an own allocator?
Sorry for being slow on that. Currently TightArray (renamed to Array)
uses hardcoded calls to malloc and free. I'd be glad to use a better
design if one came along.

Btw. I downloaded the new dmd(2047) and tried to use this new Array
template. But it does not seem to work:
import std.container;
void main()
{
Array!(int) a;
}
//src\phobos\std\container.d(1660): Error: function
core.stdc.stdlib.free (void* ptr) is not callable using argument types
(int[])
//src\phobos\std\container.d(1660): Error: cannot implicitly convert
expression ((*this._data)._payload) of type int[] to void*
is it my fault? does anyone else have this problem?
