Perhaps give Jam (http://www.freetype.org/jam/index.html) a try, it's
got builds for almost every platform and works well for me. I use this
Jamfile for most D projects:
# Requires the Jam (ftjam) build tool (http://www.freetype.org/jam/)
ALL_LOCATE_TARGET = build ;
SubDir TOP ;
# auxiliary rules to support building D code with perforce Jam
rule UserObject {
switch $(>:S) {
case .d : Dc $(<) : $(>) ;
case * :
Exit "Unknown suffix on " $(>) " - see UserObject rule in
Jambase." ;
}
}
rule Dc {
Depends $(<) : $(>) ;
DCFLAGS on $(<) += $(DCFLAGS) $(SUBDIRDCFLAGS) ;
}
actions Dc {
$(DC) -c -of$(<) $(DCFLAGS) $(DOPTIM) $(>)
}
# override the Link action to correct for the dmd compiler -o flag
actions Link bind NEEDLIBS {
$(LINK) $(LINKFLAGS) -of$(<) $(UNDEFS) $(>) $(NEEDLIBS) $(LINKLIBS)
}
DC = dmd ;
DCFLAGS = -fPIC -O -inline -release -w -wi -I./src/ ;
LINK = $(DC) ;
DFILES = [ GLOB src : *.d ] ;
MainFromObjects myprogam : $(DFILES:S=.o) ;
Objects $(DFILES) ;
Hope this helps,
Chris

Russel,
Thanks for the tips - I shall try SCons.

SCons 2.1.0 just came out, though I have to admit I use Mercurial tip.
The DMD tool that comes as standard with SCons is not really sufficient
to the task. I have a friendly fork of this at
https://bitbucket.org/russel/scons_dmd_new. The idea had been to create
a patch to merge into SCons core just before each release, but I failed
this time :-(
If you find any issues feel free to hassle me and or email the folk on
the SCons user list.
