I don't know about the rest of DSSS as I only ever used the 'rebuild' component. But as for rebuild, there are problems: For one thing, 0.76 is generally considered to work much better than 0.77 and the final version, 0.78 (I forget the details, but a lot of people including me have had problems with 0.78 that never showed up with 0.76). But despite that, read-made builds aren't available for 0.76. As DSSS is dead none of this is likely to get fixed. And there's no reason to fix rebuild since RDMD is a superior and non-dead alternative to rebuild. Also, rebuild is slow, even with "one at a time" disabled. Try compiling DVM with the included rebuild-based script and the RDMD-based one. It takes a fair amount of time with rebuild (even with "one at a time" off), but with RDMD it's almost instant. There's no reason for anyone to use rebuild anymore, and very few people do. > GtkD works both with D1 and D2. > So does RDMD, unless I'm mistaken.
