bdwgc

D interface to the Boehm-Demers-Weiser Garbage Collector (BDWGC). Provides a structured allocator API for GC-managed memory with thread support.

Note: All allocations, including aligned ones, are GC-managed via BDWGC. Thread registration is required for multi-threaded applications when GCThreads is enabled.

Functions

GC_allow_register_threads void GC_allow_register_threads(): Undocumented in source but is binding to C. You might be able to learn more by searching the web for its name.
GC_printf void GC_printf(const(char)* format, ...): Formatted output for GC logging
GC_register_my_thread void GC_register_my_thread(): Undocumented in source but is binding to C. You might be able to learn more by searching the web for its name.
GC_thread_is_registered int GC_thread_is_registered(): Undocumented in source but is binding to C. You might be able to learn more by searching the web for its name.
GC_unregister_my_thread void GC_unregister_my_thread(): Undocumented in source but is binding to C. You might be able to learn more by searching the web for its name.
isGoodDynamicAlignment bool isGoodDynamicAlignment(uint x): Checks if alignment is valid: a power of 2 and at least pointer size.

Structs

BoehmAllocator struct BoehmAllocator: Allocator for BDWGC-managed memory, implementing IAllocator. Thread-safe and compatible with -betterC. Requires thread registration for multi-threaded use when GCThreads is enabled.
ThreadGuard struct ThreadGuard: Manage BDWGC thread registration. Use ThreadGuard.create() to instantiate and register the current thread. Unregisters the thread on destruction. No-op if GCThreads is disabled.
