Hi!
I need to load some textures for my game,but I woud like to do
it in
compile time.
I know that CTFE imposes restrictions on functions.So can I
execute some
DevIL(Derelict3) functions?
What you can do is importing the textures into the executable,
at compile time, if that helps:
http://dlang.org/expression.html#ImportExpression
That can bring the image into the app as an array of bytes. Then
at runtime, you can use DevIL to load the image data from the
byte array. I've got a blog post[1] about doing this very thing
(with SDL rather than DevIL, but it's all the same).
