Walter, I suggest you to stop right now to say how much good D module
system is and how much good your design is, etc, and to start looking
for the problems/holes instead. In my language there is a proverb that
says something like "Who praises himself a lot, covers himself with
broth" or something similar ^_^ Keep looking for the *design* problems
of the D module system, and try to fix them, instead of saying several
times how much good D module system is.
I agree with the spirit. Getting in the state we unconditionally believe
we got it right essentially prevents progress in the matter by halting
the brain.
That being said, I recall you mentioned a couple of times in the past
that D's modules have problems. Whenever you substantiated those claims,
I found the arguments insufficient and ended up forgetting them. Are
there some bugzilla reports (at the risk of repeating the same
question)?
Andrei
How about this one: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3108
Thanks. I voted it up! A cursory reading suggests that neither of those
are matters of principles, only implementation issues. Is that right?
Andrei
Am not sure about 1441 and I don't think 2529 is just an implementation
issue.
