In fact, while you're on it you can make the watchdog to terminate the primary process too, so the user won't have to kill the program manually in case of infinite loop. In case of windows, the OS can take care of this with the JOB functions family: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/jobapi2/nf-jobapi2-assignprocesstojobobject

I've used that extensively in C# but I believe you can port that code to D easily. Here's the code[1]. Hope it's useful.

IMHO, your d program cannot have direct control over a spawned
process. However, I suggest a road map for you, although I am not
sure if it works.
- I don't know if d has something like C's expect [1] library,
but you will need a similar thing. Basically, It spawns processes
and handles their stdout. Maybe you can just wrap libexpect in D.
- Assuming you have "expect" running in D, you can spawn
"tasklist" [2] and somehow filter out (I recall that it can be
done with expect using a struct like a regex on stdout) its
stdout to determine the PID number [2] of the process that you
want to kill at the end of the program.
- then, in your main:
void main(){
...
scope(exit){ // maybe you should also be aware of
scope(success) and scope(failure)
killPlink(); // spawn another process: "Taskkill /PID
26356 /F"
}
...
}
