I'm not an expert on D but Google tells me that it doesn't support automatic deterministic termination. So, if you have a file or a handle open, you need scope(exit) to close it. It also means that the programmer must keep track of all non-memory resources and dispose them "manually" like a C programmer. In C++, RAII makes scope(exit) unnecessary, and catch(...) is the same as scope(failure). Emil Dotchevski Reverge Studios, Inc. http://www.revergestudios.com/reblog/index.php?n=ReCode
