Thank you for the slides.
Few comments:
Page 10, and in other pages I'd like a non-proportional font for the code,
because I find it a little more readable (even better if it's colorized, there
are online tools able to produce colorized HTML from D1 code too).
Page 19:
>Unlike C++, values can be moved in memory Postblit is used to adjust things
>after a move<
OK, so a moving GC needs to call the Postblit each time it moves a struct.
Page 20: is that functional? It even contains a mutable "sum" value. It may be
seen as kind-of-functional. A more functional style is to use a reduce (fold)
there, from std.algorithm.
Page 30: that little concurrent test program gives me an error:
...\dmd\src\phobos\std\typecons.d(336): Error: no property 'length' for type
'immutable(char)'
This is the part of typecons.d that gives the error:
static string injectNamedFields()
{
string decl = "";
foreach (i, name; staticMap!(extractName, fieldSpecs))
{
auto field = text("Identity!(field[", i, "])");
auto numbered = text("_", i);
decl ~= text("alias ", field, " ", numbered, ";");
if (name.length != 0) // line 336
{
decl ~= text("alias ", numbered, " ", name, ";");
}
}
return decl;
}
Bye,
