Not sure if this is known, on macOS to get C++ ABI compatibility with a pure
virtual class it seems you need to add an additional dummy call.
This is not required on Windows.


extern(C++) interface MyCPPCInterface
{

    // Simulate C++ destructor so that the v-table layout is the same
    void destroyThis();

    // required not to crash...
    version (OSX) void unknownCall(); // THIS IS SURPRISING


    void otherMethod1();


   [ Other methods... ]
}
