IIRC that would be:
#raii foo = new Foo;
the "auto" dosn't indicate auto typing, it's just a storage classe to
indecate a decleration. "auto" is used because most of the time it has
no effect.
These all works:
void main()
{
auto f2 = cast(int)'\n';
const f3 = cast(int)'\n';
extern f5 = cast(int)'\n';
static f8 = cast(int)'\n';
synchronized f9 = cast(int)'\n';
}
