FYI devel now has support to define C++ constructors.

Here are the docs: https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/manual_experimental.html#constructor-pragma

This is great but 2 grammatical errors can be spotted in the first paragraph of the linked docs: “constructor pragmas has two ways of” -> “… pragma has …” “declare constructors that works similarly to virtual” -> “… constructors that work …”

Thanks for pointing them out. Didnt notice them as Im not a native speaker. Will fix them.

BTW you could also make a PR to the docs when you see something off :)

Me neither, I make mistakes all the time. I think most of the Nim team aren’t native speakers also. I would suggest having Copilot check the grammar of PR for documentation (see this RFC: https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/520)
