Re: DScanner v0.16.0-beta.1 - looking for IDE dev feedback
On 08.07.23 23:59, WebFreak001 wrote: https://github.com/dlang-community/D-Scanner/releases/tag/v0.16.0-beta.1 ## For IDE devs: the new D-Scanner version comes with a major new improvement: automatic fix suggestions for diagnostics. As IDE dev you can use the existing `--report` functionality to get JSON parsable output for the issues, along with new information such as start/end byte indices. Then when the user wants to query auto-fixes for any given issue (or just in general at any location in the file), use `dscanner --resolveMessage b512 file.d` to list the resolved auto-fixes at the given location. See the README.md for more information. Looking for feedback on the API and if you need any changes. Additionally this API is usable with D-Scanner as a library as well. ## For users: `dscanner fix source/` can be used to interactively auto-fix all issues inside the source/ directory that have available autmoatic fixes. Sounds to good to be true, will give it a try for sure!!! Thanks a lot. Kind regards, Christian

Congratulations, looking forward to lock my programs on version 1.1.0 instead of master.

Like DMD, the min D version for bootstrapping is v2.079 (or GDC v9.x) now. - Dropped support for LLVM < 9. - New LeakSanitizer support via `-fsanitize=leak`. - New prebuilt universal macOS package, runnable on both x86_64 and arm64, and enabling x86_64/arm64 macOS/iOS cross-compilation targets out of the box.

On a sidenote I am having problem downloading any 2.100.1 dmd version from dlang.org. Is it just me? Old releases are available on http://downloads.dlang.org/releases but not the 2.100.1.

Nice, so if the code would be ported from 2.098.1 to 2.100.0 the dub dependency could be used perhaps ...

I tried it on OSX by building with this script instead of your Makefile as I am managing my dlang version with https://dlang.org/install.html: ```bash #!/bin/bash -xe # select dmd sources (please run ~/dlang/install.sh dmd-2.098.1 manually) DMD_SOURCES=~/dlang/dmd-2.098.1/src # prepare filesystem rm -f tools/dmd2/src mkdir -p tools/dmd2 ln -s $DMD_SOURCES tools/dmd2/src mkdir -p build # activate compiler (please run ~/dlang/install.sh ldc-1.29.0 manually) source ~/dlang/ldc-1.29.0/activate # build dmd-lib ldmd2 -debug -lib -version=MARS -version=NoMain -J=./include -J=$DMD_SOURCES/dmd/dmd/res -I$DMD_SOURCES/dmd -od=build -of=dmd.a $DMD_SOURCES/dmd/dmd/*.d $DMD_SOURCES/dmd/dmd/*/*.d # and cognito dub build --build=release --config=executable ``` and I am wondering what real world "numbers" are. Is e.g. 20 a "good" or "bad" number? Another question that comes to mind is, if the dmd frontend could be made available as a dub package, which would simplify the build process?

Re: [Semi-OT] Markdown rendering extension for Thunderbird
On 2021-12-11 06:07, David Gileadi wrote: I use Thunderbird to read this forum and have gotten jealous of the Markdown formatting that the website supports but that Thunderbird doesn't. So I made [an extension](https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/render-markdown-messages/) to render Markdown-formatted messages in Thunderbird. Unfortunately this doesn't allow sending messages with Markdown formatting from Thunderbird—that would probably belong in the [Markdown-here](https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/markdown-here-revival/) extension but can't work yet because Thunderbird currently [doesn't allow modifying the content-type header](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717221) (bug filed by Vladimir). My extension is limited to reading Markdown-formatted messages. cybershadow came up a while ago with a nice hack around this issue: https://gist.github.com/CyberShadow/ccb3813d5953e5e7f2c53fe43275f986 I put it in a ready to use dub project (but did not put it to the registry).

Okay, so I create a file, name it dub.sdl and put this in it: name "my-awesome-gtk-app" dependency "gtk-d" version="~>3.8.5" And this goes in the same folder as the code file. And then... what? I type: dub? Just for the record, this is completely different from what I was reading before about this dub stuff. Yes.
