write D -> C++ translator and add translated versions to repo
too. no,
really! this C++ code need not to be maintenable, so we can
use C++
subset as "assembler language". i.e. use D frontend to make all
analysis, instantiate templates and so on, then just emit ugly,
unreadable, but working subset of C++. why C++? to support
exceptions,
which can be hard to do properly with C.
LDC and LLVM allow to comvert a D source code to C source (and
may be
to C++). What wrong with this solution?
There's nothing wrong with this solution. I think about this as a
way to bootstrap LDC without requiring another D compiler.
