There'd also be the argument that using phobos inside ddmd would make the
latter a better test for itself and phobos. -- Andrei
This is true, but my main concern is the quality of the compiler source.
My main concerns are: (not in order)
- Compile time
- Binary bloat
- Reduced scrutiny of code that is used in the compiler - I review every
single compiler patch, but I do not have time to do that for phobos too
- The compiler must build with the last release, and with HEAD. HEAD phobos
only needs to build with HEAD.
- Some other things.
Anyway, there is no rush. We will have plenty of time to talk about this
after ddmd becomes dmd.
