I can. I've written D interfaces to vendor-supplied C and C++ SDKs and for an open source C library (libusb). We're using this at work. For C, it's relatively easy and mechanical to translate by hand but https://github.com/jacob-carlborg/dstep makes starting trivial. For C++, I had two cases- one was easy as that vendor provided a C handle and function call syntax while the other required doing a C shim (facade) to wrap up the object. I didn't find SWIG to be useful but did examine its output to get ideas. The built-in unit testing in D is very handy.
