digitalmars.D.learn - rtInfo()

Hello,
is rtInfo() already used by GC?
I need to store some data for each class so I'm using this 
template and m_rtInfo in TypeInfo_Class but now it seems that GC 
is not working properly in some cases.

Thanks.

Doesn't look like it.

Remember rtInfo is per class definition, not instance.

If you really need to modify rtInfo, don't do it directly. TypeInfo is 
meant to be read only.
Do it via the RTInfo template[0] but that means modifying druntime.
