Re: This Week in D: Dconf Thursday summaries
I've done some COM stuff too, even interacting with vb and jscript through the IDispatch which I think will work in Excel too. I'm crazy busy the next few days, but here's the code: https://github.com/adamdruppe/com I have to remember just how to use it to guide through but maybe the examples in there will help.

I think I'll do a special edition that brings all the dconf stuff together in a few weeks too. If you've already read it ongoing, there will be little new (hopefully video links though), but perhaps it will be something we can post to a wider audience.
Re: N-dimensional slices is ready for comments!

Corresponding lines was marked with //TODO: static foreach Best regards, Ilya The operator overloading and slicing mechanics look great, but I'm probably more excited about the future work you have listed. Some thoughts: The top line of ndslice.d says it is for creating n-dimensional random access ranges. I was able to get the example for operator overloading working for dynamic arrays, but it doesn't seem to work for static. Hopefully this work can be extended. In addition, hopefully the future work on foreach byElement will be able to work on static arrays in addition to dynamic. My second point seems to be related to a discussion on the github page about accessing N-dimensional arrays by index. Basically there are some circumstances where it is convenient to loop by index on an N-dimensional array. Finally, I have been trying to do something like auto A = 4.iota.sliced(2, 2).array; auto B = to!(float[][])(A); without any luck. Seems to work though for one-dimensional arraays. I think instead you have to do something like auto A = iota(0.0f, 4.0f, 1).sliced(2, 2).array;

Home: https://github.com/Abscissa/scriptlike Dub: http://code.dlang.org/packages/scriptlike Full changelog: https://github.com/Abscissa/scriptlike/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md I've begun utilizing this in scripts I'm building, to help get things done faster and more consistently. I've combined it with dub because dub will grab the build off the web, but it also makes scripts a little heavier. I really like having the bulk of Phobos imported. I'm very fond of the new std.process, so much better than powershell

Also std.database update in there, lots of community announcements, and a bug list cleanup. Great writeup. Reading it I get to relive the conference :) By the way, Lightning Talk #3 was me. Hi Lionello. I wondered whether you might have had any change in thoughts about releasing your COM code (I know it might not be your choice, but no harm in asking): http://forum.dlang.org/thread/jfmohh$1i81$1...@digitalmars.com This is the problem I am struggling with at the moment (related, but different): http://forum.dlang.org/thread/rzfjgdtvadlsusong...@forum.dlang.org Laeeth.
