It does have some visual bugs. Text overflows buttons, the menu text isn't displayed properly (it needs to have inverted foreground when selected), checkboxes flash blue in the background when selected, spinbuttons aren't properly themed (they say it's on purpose), the file chooser is still GTK and the text input boxes don't seem to follow system settings when it comes to blink rate. Most of these are fixable I guess. Except the file picker which probably won't be replaced, but might be replaceable with system calls in custom user classes. Anyway it's not too shabby. It's great that we have a multiplatform library that's up to date. Thanks GtkD devs!

I don't understand what GTK_BASEPATH is for if it's not used properly. Normally GtkD searches for the dll in the default locations ( See Also: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682586(VS.85).aspx ), witch includes any directory listed in the PATH environment variable. The GTK_BASEPATH environment variable can be used to override this, when set GtkD searches for the dlls in that directory, and only that directory. So GTK_BASEPATH doesn't need to be set but when is it set, it does need to point to the correct location, some old Gtk+ 2.x installers used to set the GTK_BASEPATH variable. -- Mike Wey

However, according to its own webpage, DSSS is a Dv1 system that cannot work with Dv2, which I guess indicates either a system with little future or a lack of maintenance of webpages. Certainly it ought to be feasible to create a C, C++, Fortran, D build system using D that could be far superior to Make, CMake, Autotools. As noted on the DSSS page integration with a unified package management system is a USP. Go has shown that this works very well by integrating GitHub, BitBucket and Launchpad as repositories, rather than using a special one a la CTAN, CPAN, Gems. Current I tend to build C, C++, Fortran, D using SCons or Waf, but if a reinvigorated and Dv2 compatible DSSS can compete and work with repositories on GitHub, BitBucket and Launchpad rather than just it's own repository, I am happy to make use of it. Alternatively if there is a description of how to build GtkD that doesn't involve installing DSSS I am happy to write a SCons build.

If you put that library in that folder there's a good change it will end up missing when installing/reinstalling DMD. Put it somewhere outside and use the -L+ switch when invoking DMD: dmd -L+C:\path\to\gtkdlib\ GtkD.lib app.d
Re: GtkD 2.0 released, Gtk+ 3 with D.
Why does a Windows version require building anyway? Building stuff is for Linux people, because they love to hunt dependencies and stuff. On Windows you should be able to unzip an archive or use an installer and have two directories - include files and compiled .lib/.a/.dll libraries ready to include into your project. Trying to avoid it is just trouble, it takes a lot of time to compile any D library and even GDC has no binary releases, so that's another time spent on hunting libs.
