I've been trying to get a modified version of std.process to compile (with Lars K's changes) for windows, and phobos finally compiled.

So I built a little test program, compiled it, and I get the following error message:

object.Exception: circular dependency in module std.stdio.

Great. How did that happen? Being that I didn't write std.stdio, only modified it slightly (and certainly didn't change any imports), I haven't the foggiest where this problem is. Given that the runtime can prove there is a circular dependency, and apparently knows the names of the modules, how about showing me the cycle?

:P

I do not look forward to tracking this one down...

doesn't -verbose list the modules dmd is importing? Perhaps it stops at the offending module?

It's a runtime issue, not a compiler issue.

Doh! now I remember, its because of the static constructors having a specific order (from tdpl). And it only does construction when you run the app, not when compiling. (elaborating on your reply).

Thanks
