What platforms for dmd would you be most interested in using?
.net
jvm
mac osx 32 bit intel
mac osx 64 bit intel
linux 64 bit
windows 64 bit
freebsd 32 bit
netbsd 32 bit
other?
- ARM7/ARM9
- Other misc microcontrollers, like Parallax's Propeller
- Mac osx 32 bit intel
- *maybe* bsd 32-bit, .net and jvm (and with .net and jvm I'd want to
still be able to use tango and phobos, and not be forced to switch to the
.net and jvm standard libs)
To elaborate:
1. A "systems language" that doesn't compile to any embedded microcontroller
seems more than a little bit silly to me. (Sad as it is to say, I don't
think GDC counts anymore.)
2. I have absolutely zero interest in 64-bit. To the people annoyed at the
limitations of the 32-bit address space: What in the world are you working
on? Non-linear video editors and 3D modeling packages?
I have to say I'm appalled by this, particularly coming from someone who
ought to know better. Should we really settle our ambitions with
computers to glorified typewriters, networking tools, and the such?
