Is there a better D graphics library in the works?
I'm using SFML(which is very easy and has lots of features) but
it seems to use a lot of ram(if you leave it running for a
while on a graphic intensive scene) and trying to make it
include the dependencies with the compiled executable is
complicated.
Is there a D 2D graphics library that's just as easy, cross
platform, doesn't use X11, allows drawing to off-screen buffers
and drawing those to screen? (plus supports nice drawing of
shapes, circles, rectangles, lines)
I'm probably asking too much- I doubt such a thing exists.
Not what you're asking for, but you could always use SDL - I
believe it has two or three bindings to D. Check on dub.
I doubt you're going to find anything like SFML written in D as
it's a lot of work to maintain such a project, and just
duplication of effort. It's why most projects in most languages
just wrap SDL in some form.
