I thought one oversight was no mention of ddmd, which seems to have gone into limbo over the last year. According to Daniel, it's pretty much done but is just waiting on Brad to add some support in the auto-tester, for 9 months now: Brad has put the host compiler in place on windows now, so the only issue with that is the invalid config file sitting in the dmd dir, which will probably be fixed by updating the dmd install to master so I can use the new '-conf' switch. There is also a crash related to D's va_copy not working, which I've nearly solved.

I wish there had been some mention of mobile. Recent news was that 1 billion Android smartphones were sold last year: that dwarfs the 316 million PCs sold, a number that keeps declining. That doesn't even include the two hundred million tablets sold last year. Right now, there's two people working on Android support and one person on iOS support. Even Android has moved to Ahead-Of-Time compilation with Lollipop. Mobile is a giant opportunity for native languages, one D cannot afford to miss.

The idea of painlessjson is to convert to native D as fast as possible. The goal is to get something like https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson for D. We are still looking for input on how inheritance and constructors should work. This is nothing new, I believe Vibe.d has a similar JSON (de)serializer. Here's my own: https://github.com/CyberShadow/ae/blob/master/utils/json.d Too slow? Try this one instead: https://github.com/CyberShadow/ae/blob/master/utils/serialization/json.d (Caveat: last one needs 5-ish compiler patches to work.)

This is how we do x, kind. Can we please keep opinionated "libraries" of how to do things away from phobos? An ORM is a great example of this. But a client library to e.g. Mysql is fine. Anyway enough about that, the plan is definitely looking good!

Thanks for detecting the error/commit. Unfortunately I have no way to test on Win32 currently, and on Linux (32 or 64) I couldn't reproduce this (and AFAIK Mac build works as well), but based on the demangled name I tried to blindly fix a possible cause. That said, there is no "obvious" cause; I suspect this may be a Win32-specific linker error. Could you clone the current git master (https://github.com/kiith-sa/harbored-mod.git) and try if it works?

However, DStep is not a product or a company like Apple but a tool with a very specific use. If I look for a tool, I prefer it to have what it does in the name, simply because it's easier to find it with a search engine. E.g. if there is a color picker plugin written in JavaScript, it makes sense that it has the words "color" and "picker" or something in the name (JSColorPicker) or so, because that's what you type into the search engine. If someone is wondering if there is an automatic converter form C.h to D, what will s/he type? Probably something like "C to D conversion programming" or "convert C headers/files to D". It's not about aesthetics, it's about being practical. C2D or CtoD (as has been suggested) are the most practical names. "C.hD" would be a nice pun. I think that changing the name now is too late. At version 0.0.1? :)

Thank you! Submitted fix with some mac font paths hardcoded. v0.4.22 Could you please try it? BTW, could you try on mac https://github.com/buggins/dlangide.git as well? It's dlangui-based D language IDE I'm currently working on. tetris and helloworld now work. example1 fails to build: src/example1.d(69): Error: undefined identifier setTimer src/example1.d(75): Error: undefined identifier cancelTimer Checked on latest version from git - example1 works for me. Did you try to pull recent changes from git? All working for me now. A few points: As I mentioned about dlangide, the font scaling is nasty. The Window menu name overflows and is clipped. Are the draggable dividers in the Buttons tab supposed to be able to move? They don't seem to do anything. I've added Gamma setting for font rendering. Now text looks acceptable. In DlangIDE v0.1.4, I'm using FontManager.fontGamma = 0.8; FontManager.hintingMode = HintingMode.AutoHint; (as well, for Windows versions, USE_FREETYPE is set - but it falls back to win32 font rendering if no freetype.dll found) As for me, now font rendering look good with such settings. Latest features implemented: * Text cursor blinking * Update of actions state in UI (now working better for toolbars, has some bugs for menu items, will be fixed soon) Now DlangIDE allows to open DUB project, edit it, build and run, clean, rebuild, upgrade dependencies (using DUB). I hope it will become usable in a few weeks.
