For now they must be maintained by hand, if there is any possibility of the glue layers or backends needing them. In the future we will hopefully auto-generate them.

"Joakim" wrote in message news:sfhycfhmabpfxxuxn...@forum.dlang.org... Great work, thanks to Daniel and others who helped out, can't wait to use ddmd and see all the changes that come with it in the next couple releases. I can't wait to use foreach internally! No more manual for loops! Can we look forward to a complete ddmd, ie backend and everything ported to D too, anytime soon? I've started on the glue layer, and most of that should be done soon, but the backend brings a bunch of complications: - The code style is nothing like the frontend - It makes heavy use of the preprocessor - We don't have a good way of testing it, which makes refactoring risky My current plan is to create a nice text form of the backend's IR, then convert DMC's test suite to this format, with before and after snapshots. I can then feed these tests through DMD's backend (no need for a C++ frontend any more) to check for regressions, letting me start modernizing the code and converting it to D. This is going to take a while.

I guess it's also time to clean the wiki page that explained how to build under win32 with DMC. It's obsolete now. Nope! The glue layer and backend are still in C++, and still need to be built with DMC. Of course. I Haven't tried to build it when i've written this observation. By the way, currently under win32 it's not possible to build DDMD unless the line --- #HOST_DC=dmd --- is uncommented. Because there is a bunch of commands using dmd compile and run (-run) in win32.mak. Is it a bug ? Maybe I miss out a step to bootstrap ?
