Is there some way to globally declare version= or debug=
statements in a file and have them apply to the entire project
being compiled? As the documentation says these only apply to
the module scope they exist in, and need to be added to the
command line otherwise. It would be a bit easier for me to
maintain a separate .d source file when I want to add/comment
out statements for testing than to keep updating the build
command line.
https://dlang.org/dmd-windows.html#switches
specifies that DMD may be passed a file on the command line that
contains compiler arguments and switches. This may be freely
combined with regular command line arguments if you so wish.
So, you could have a file called 'versions' containing this:
# Setting 'Compress' version
-version=Compress
# Optionally set other versions
#-version=Foo
#-version=Bar
and feed it to dmd like so:
dmd -w -wi -g @versions -main foo.d
