Does this work in GDC?
Can't test in GDC, but it does work in LDC, and I see no reason
why it shouldn't, because this functionality is implemented in
the frontend, which DMD, GDC and LDC share.
I've been trying to get a baremetal GDC working for the ARM
cortex-M, I guess it isn't quite ready yet.
I'm looking forward to DConf 2014 to seeing,
"Tiny, Ubiquitous Machines Powered by D" by Michael V. Franklin.
To see how his work on the cortex-M is going.
I mostly work on safety critical applications DO-170C,(Nothing
with D) but this language looks like it might have a great deal
of potential in this area. Not that C isn't good, but there are
things that make the code look cleaner. I was looking at the
Interactive D compiler and how it associated the assembly code
with the lines of D code, I guess you can do that through the
link file(-S in gcc). But D has code coverage information, unit
test that you don't have to remove from the production code.
there is a great deal of good stuff there. more and more tools
for various operation seem to pop up every day. good stuff.
