D/Objective-C (the compiler addition) is much more than that. It's
support and cohabitation of a second object ABI, it's support for
Objective-C exceptions mixed with D exceptions, support for Objective-C
string and selector literals, class objects and overridable class
methods, overriding, contracts added to the Objective-C object model,
Objective-C protocols (through interfaces), plus a few other things
which haven't been implemented at this time.
Out of curiosity, do you see this becoming a possible improvement on D in
the next year?
I have recently been doing iOS and Mac development with objective-c, and I
am quite impressed with how well it works, and how easy it is to use,
especially with xcode.
It would be nice to mix in a bit of D, using obj-c containers is a pain.
I remember the tail-const object reference was a blocker, no? is there
anything else?
