What about tools to make deallocation easier? For example, we have
scope(exit) that you could potentially use to ensure a memory block is
deallocated on exit from a scope, what about a thread exit?
It seems to me that the simplest thing might simply be a list of delegates
stored
with the thread:
thread.onexit ~= { free(whatever); };
Already possible via static dtors.
Not dynamically...
void*[] toFree;
static ~this() {
foreach(e; toFree)
free(e);
}
What am I missing?
I'm thinking of an API that allows people to dynamically add "to do"
stuff, a la C's atexit(). Yours above is dynamic (because client code
can append to toFree) but is hand-written by the client.
