I don't know how to do this. I'm not the best with pointers, I'm
still learning D and I'm unfamiliar with functional programming.
==============================================
import core.sys.windows.windows: EnumWindows;
import std.stdio: writeln;
extern (Windows) int callback(void* hWnd, long hWndList) nothrow {
hWndList ~= hWnd;
return true;
}
void main() {
void*[] hWndList;
EnumWindows(&callback, &hWndList);
writeln(hWndList);
}
==============================================
Clearly I can't use &hWndList to pass the reference, how would I
access the variable by the memory address inside the callback?
