Hi there,
I just spent most of this weekend digging into the DMD compiler code
and came up with a set of patches that might be of interest:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4713
All started out with the attempt to create .di interface files for
phobos2. The resulting .di files were too ugly to read and even DMD
itself refused to eat them.
Trying to fix the problem, I started digging deeper and deeper.
Finally, the bugs were fixed, the resulting .di files are now
correctly indented and readable and the compiler code itself has even
become a bit cleaner and more compact.
It would be good if these patches would find their way into DMD soon.
The bulk of the changes are trivial but quite nonlocal, so merging
will quickly become difficult...
Properly indented .di files? Best patch ever.
Don't expect anything fancy at this point: just indent by two spaces on
"{" and outdent on "}". Nothing configurable. I just chose a convention
that works reasonably well for most code...
