SIMD in LDC is currently broken
What problems did you have with it? It seems to work fine for
me.
Can you post an example of doing a simple arithmetic with two
'float4's? My simple tests either fail with LLVM errors or don't
produce correct results (which reminds me, I meant to report
them, I'll do that). Here's an example:
import core.simd, std.stdio;
void main()
{
float4 a = 1, b = 2;
writeln((a + b).array); // WORKS: [3, 3, 3, 3]
float4 c = [1, 2, 3, 4]; // ERROR: "Stored value type does
// not match pointer operand type!"
// [..a bunch of LLVM error code..]
float4 c = 0, d = 1;
c.array[0] = 4;
c.ptr[1] = 4;
writeln((c + d).array); // WRONG: [1, 1, 1, 1]
}
