this section is for objects - reference types, I'm talking about value types. Look at sections Usage and Strings.

int* p;
int[3] s;
int[] a;
p = s;		// p points to the first element of the array s.
p = a;		// p points to the first element of the array a.

char[] str;
char* p = str;		// pointer to 1st element

Of course array of ref types can't be converted to pointer to this ref type because D doesn't support pointers to ref types.
