Hi all!
After 14 years using Perl for programming at job I'm now
learning D. (And enjoying it)
Hi, and welcome.

As a newbie I've a few questions. I'm already using D and it's
working fine, although I'm writing baby-D the performance
improvement is impressive, I'm now trying to use mysql native
access. It seems there are two possibilities:
- https://github.com/simendsjo/mysqln
- https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/mysql-native
So far we've tried the second one, mysql-native, with success
while using rdmd, but I've failed to compile using dmd, (the
rather cryptic message from the compiler it's attached at the
end of this entry).
You're right in picking the rejectedsoftware repo. The first one
is in a state of flux while experimenting with a near complete
rewrite and a new API.
The rejectedsoftware repo is based on an earlier version of mine
which in turn is based on the original by Steve Teale (britseye).
(... lots of compiler errors ...)
What you are seeing are missing dependencies. DMD won't figure
out dependencies you are using without you specifying it in
detail.
You should be using dub directly rather than dmd. Specify your
dependencies in the package.json file, and use "dub run" to run
the application.
I created a video tutorial a couple of days ago that might help
you get started using dub: http://youtu.be/8TV9ZZteYEU
