Well, to be completely honest with you the only one
thing I like about the Go programming language is the
ability to easily cross-compile your Go program from
any supported OS to any supported OS.
So I was wondering what is the story of cross-compilation
for different D language compilers? Is it possible to some
extent now?
Yes, it works with LDC.
Do you guys have interest in it?
Yes.
Basically as far as I understood what makes Go suitable
for cross-compilation is their own linker implementation,
and D compilers use current system linker.
If the system linker supports cross-compilation it's no problem. Here's
a Dockerfile [1] with LDC that cross-compiles to macOS.
