Hi!
I'm new to D and trying everything out. Got the basics down
which are very straightforward and similar to other languages.
My professional background is primarily in C/C++-variants and
Ruby if it helps.
I have a problem with how modules, packages and files work. I
don't really know how I am supposed to organize my code. I
like namespaces from C++ which is probably my curse. What I
want to write is code similar to this:
MyClass obj = new MyClass();
SomePackage.SecondClass secondObj = new
SomePackage.SecondClass();
Problem here is that SecondClass is a module. Is there some
nifty trick I can do here to solve this? I tried with just
having one module file which would hold all it's classes and
functions but that backfired very quickly as you can imagine
since it grew too large too quickly for most simple things.
I am open to any suggestions of course which would make it
simple for me to have a good structure with my files and also
make my code easily readable. Though if possible I would like
anything that goes under the package/module can somehow be
placed in it's own folder.
You can get the equivalent of C++ namespaces with the following
project structure:
project_folder
- SomePackage.d
- SomePackage_impl
-SecondClass.d
and then in SomePackage.d:
module SomePackage;
public import SomePackage_impl.SecondClass;
Nice thanks! That will help me out a lot!
Is there a "D" way to do it? Or is D too young to have that yet?
You know Ruby has a "Ruby" way to do stuff. Like using blocks to
do some things instead of the traditional way in C style
languages.
