Hello,
I used the Install Script command line to install the newest
dmd compiler (Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS). Now I have to type 'source
~/dlang/dmd-2.074.1/activate' before I can use it and it is
also not show in the software center like it used to be. How
can I fix it or how can I remove it?
Thx
You are using the script directly from dlang.org, as such you can
manipulate (manage) your installed compilers directly from the
shell. And not just DMD, it also manages LDC and GDC.
dmd|gdc|ldc latest version of a compiler
dmd|gdc|ldc-<version> specific version of a compiler (e.g.
dmd-2.071.1, ldc-1.1.0-beta2)
dmd|ldc-beta latest beta version of a compiler
dmd-nightly latest dmd nightly
dmd-2016-08-08 specific dmd nightly
To uninstall any compiler previously installed via this script
simply type ~/dlang/install.sh uninstall <compiler version>
install.sh uninstall dmd
install.sh uninstall dmd-2.071.1
install.sh uninstall ldc-1.1.0-beta2
To install a different version of the compiler type
~/dlang/install.sh uninstall <other version>
install.sh install dmd
install.sh install dmd-2.071.1
install.sh install ldc-1.1.0-beta2
To make the 'source ~/dlang/dmd-2.074.1/activate' persistent,
simply store it in ~/.bash_profile. If this file does not already
exist, simply create it.
Best of luck.
Andrew
