The best way I know to determine the latest DMD release is
http://ftp.digitalmars.com/LATEST. I'm not aware that such a file exists
for LDC and GDC so I'm currently doing:
string latest(string url) {
return executeShell("git ls-remote --tags " ~ url ~ " | cut -d 'v'
-f 2 | cut -d '-' -f 1 | cut -d '^' -f 1 | uniq | tail -n 1").output.strip;
}
Is there a better way?
The official download script [1] is using the following:
dmd - http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/LATEST
dmd beta - http://downloads.dlang.org/pre-releases/LATEST
ldc - https://ldc-developers.github.io/LATEST
ldc beta - https://ldc-developers.github.io/LATEST_BETA
gdc - http://gdcproject.org/downloads/LATEST
[1] https://dlang.org/install.sh
