The two first ideas I had with it was the not null and ranged integer structs. Then the move semantics can come from it too. So can selectively disabling other operator overloads; forwarding most things to a member but filtering out some operations. Disabling default construction still has a few compiler bugs so it isn't watertight but I've found it is really nice to have.

However, a lot of things in programming are plain and simple everyday problems like having your program send an email. I recently told a coworker to have a look at D and maybe use it for his number crunching algorithms. You can get far in D without templates, mixins and ranges. You don't need to learn them before you can use the language. You learn about them as you go along. You can dig right in. Maybe that's part of the reasons why people are reluctant to use D. They think you have to be a rocket scientist to write a program. You don't. But it will turn you into one :-)

What I find sometimes is that even if I know most things about something, I still forget things that I knew (particularly if I don't use that knowledge regularly), so reading something like this could jog your memory about things and thus improve your knowledge, even if you actually had known all of it at some point (though the odds are still that there are at least a few things in it that you never learned, even if you know a lot). - Jonathan M Davis

Re: Adam D. Ruppe's "D Cookbook" now available!
Packt made an excerpt from the range chapter available too: https://www.packtpub.com/article/ranges That's from the tail end of the chapter where I started talking about emulation performance (relevant to this little convo) and how to put some stuff together.

That's the range-writer side of the same range-consumer rule: don't try to get fancy and support something the underlying data doesn't natively do because then you'll introduce bugs and slowdowns that might be hard to find. FWIW, and in the spirit of "maybe others could benefit too" (not sure whether your book touches on this or not): I *used to be* strongly opposed to what you suggest there, deliberately not emulating accesses the data doesn't support. Even had a big long debate over it with Andrei. My reasoning was that you should be able to swap different data structures in and out to find the best performance, because *even if* you're relying on an operation the underlying data doesn't support, it could still be such a *small* and infrequent reliance that the localized performance hit is overshadowed by improved performance in the rest of your code. Seemed a perfectly sound argument to be, but then I realized: It's trivial to write an adapter to emulate features on ranges or containers that don't support them. Not only is this more re-usable (ex: only need to write a particular method of "emulate random access" once), but far more importantly, this makes the feature-emulation EXPLICIT instead of hidden. The upshot of that is, if a range or container doesn't support some feature, you can *still* trivially have an emulated drop-in-replacement, and it's equally easy (or even easier still) but BETTER because it's explicit, not hidden.

The GC never has called struct destructors for arrays of structs or individual structs allocated on the heap. It will call destructors on structs that are members of classes ONLY because the class destructor will call the struct destructor. One other situation a heap allocated struct will have it's destructor called (I think) is due to a closure allocation, but I'm not 100% sure how that works. A way to verify is to make a closure occur, then test the closure's block to see if FINALIZE flag is set on it. -Steve

After watching Adam's most excellent presentation at Dconf, I'm
sure the book will be great! My copy gets here on Friday.
A question(s) regarding Chapter 5: Making a reference-counted
object:
(btw do we need separate thread for content-related questions?)
- point 5 (of How to do it...) says: "... and free the object if
necessary", but then in code:
~this() {
if(data is null) return;
data.refcount--;
writeln("Released. Refcount = ", data.refcount);
if(data.refcount == 0)
writeln("Destroyed.");
}
is actual freeing missing? Or am I missing something?
Later in same chapter: "... or being collected by the garbage
collector—its destructor is called, if present."
Is that really true? My understanding (and unfortunate test) is
that it is never guaranteed that d-tor of GD allocated object is
ever called. If that is the case then: is that true that dynamic
array of RefCountedObject does not guarantee any of d-tors
called? That would also mean that if any of objects in object
graph is GC-allocated then NONE of its child nodes have any
guarantees about destruction?
