initArray

It would be nice to have an initializedArray function, which
creates and initializes an arbitrarily-sized array with a *specific*
initializer. An implementation is provided in the attachment.

initArray2

Rebased initArry to dsimcha's initialize() function from his std.allocator package.

3rd version

This one adds initialization by another array's elements. Basically it's a deep-copy.
Comment 3 Andrej Mitrovic 2016-08-27 22:24:51 UTC 
Hmm.. I'm not sure about the use-case of this. It combines some stuff with an optional allocator but that should ideally be part of the new allocator stuff in the works by Andrei.

The provided example implementation isn't very noteworthy though. Closing this.
