[Project description](https://gist.github.com/edi33416/0e592f4afbeb2fb81d3abf235b9732ce) [SAOC projects](https://dlang.org/blog/2021/08/30/saoc-2021-projects/) Hello! Last week I managed to do the following tasks for #SAOC2021: - started to reorganize the code - implemented interfaces and mixins for `toHash` - decided the order of PRs I must make next week (first I will add the `ProtoObject` class in druntime and after that I will add the code that makes `ProtoObject` the root of `Object` in dmd) The plan for the next week: - make PRs to [druntime](https://github.com/dlang/druntime) and [dmd](https://github.com/dlang/dmd) repos - continue to reorganize the code - prepare the next PRs - remove `__monitor` from `ProtoObject` and add a new class `SynchronizedProtoObject` (with `__monitor`)

I think that will remove the need for extern(C++) classes and also factor into making std.v2 betterC compatible and help make the entire D ecosystem more coherent.

Anyway, even if extern(D) classes did work with -betterC, you won't get the standard library working with -betterC as a whole. Simply because it wouldn't be compiled in. Of course one of the big issues with getting phobos working with -betterC is exceptions. There is no alternative and they require runtime stuff that just can't exist without a runtime.
