Could we get a LP64 version identifier? I know that you can use this
code:
"static if ((void*).sizeof > int.sizeof)"
to do the same but that's not particular clear that the programmer
wants to check for LP64. If so, I hope we could get it in D1 also.
Yeah, I agree, and it's already in both for the next update. It'll be
D_LP64.
Are you saying that D_LP64 isn't implemented in the current version?
Because I noticed that it was already listed in the documentation:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/version.html
When I tried to set the D_LP64 version with GDC it said: "Error: version
identifier 'D_LP64' is reserved and cannot be set" and GDC is quite old
now. But perhaps it's only reserved and not implemented yet.
I just tried it. D_LP64 isn't set on my GDC, yet (void*).sizeof is 8.
So it doesn't work yet.
Some testing shows that all DMD-frontend based compilers (i.e. DMD, GDC
and LDC) seem to produce that error message for any version identifier
starting with "D_" (Including "D_" itself).
