extern(C) { struct PrivateStruct; // private struct in external C library void* Foo(); // external function returns untyped pointer to PrivateHandle } PrivateHandle* ptr = null; // ok ptr = cast(PrivateHandle*)Foo(); // PrivateHandle unknown size

I'm mistyped. Replace PrivateHandle to PrivateStruct.
