Re: Update to Bare Metal STM32F4 (ARM Cortex-M4) LCD Demo Proof of Concept

DIP 1009--Improve Contract Usability--Preliminary Review Round 2 Begins
DIP 1009 is titled, "Improve Contract Usability". The second preliminary review round is now underway. http://forum.dlang.org/post/luhdbjnsmfomtgpyd...@forum.dlang.org As a reminder, the first preliminary review round for DIP 1011 is ongoing and has one week remaining. http://forum.dlang.org/post/topmfucguenqpucsb...@forum.dlang.org

It basically feels like you don't need to write any boilerplate HTML code anymore but instead write D and show your D code with a fancy mask automatically to the user. Additionally it handles all the validation for you so you can be sure that anything the user couldn't type in into the HTML frontend won't be stored inside the backend struct (validation & some corrections for all HTML5 input types). I am getting OpenSSL linker errors when I run "dub test": https://gist.github.com/NVolcz/d1731f92622b018e1cebbc42b195028c

I am dreaming that someday I can program smart house IoT automation on D. You already can; it just may not be the most professional experience. If you have the hardware and the time, do it! Mike I am stopped by the lack of a system library for work with GPIO, PWM etc specific MCU things.

It seems great mids think alike, I will be using this to implement OpenCL's horrible getInfo. https://github.com/libmir/dcompute/blob/master/source/dcompute/driver/ocl120/util.d#L36 https://github.com/libmir/dcompute/blob/master/source/dcompute/driver/ocl120/device.d#L67 Regarding the inferred attribute problem with the concepts like Straw-man usage, this should not be a problem with my attributes DIP, since all special attributes become normal attributes and you could just have an AliasSeq of the required values.
