No.
immutable string a = "123";
immutable string b = a;
void main(){writeln(a.ptr is b.ptr);} // "false"
It actually does, but only identical strings. It doesn't seem to
do strings within strings.
void foo(string a){
string b = "123";
writeln(a is b);
}
void main(){
string a = "123";
string b = "456";
string c = "123456";
foo(a);
foo(b);
foo(c);
}
Prints:
true
false
false
