Hi simendsjo, I now see your repository at: https://github.com/simendsjo/mysqln Is there a way that we can have one central repository that people can pull from. I would like it to be Steve's since that is the one everybody knows, but I am not sure he wants to manage pull requests and such (If your are listening Steve, please weigh in). He seems to be enjoying "Adventures in Woodworking" and may not have any fingers left when he finishes his latest project (just joking, read your blog). Otherwise, maybe we could use your repository listed above. My goal is not a generic database interface discussed previously in these groups. I just want an interface for mysql/mariadb and less so for postgresql at this point.

Actually, it looks like the vibe folks are using my fork of Steve Teales mysqln. I had hoped to contact Steve first, so that these changes existed in one place. https://github.com/JollieRoger All of the changes exist in individual branches off the master branch. Git will merge these into one file fuzzily. What they are is as follows: seperatemain - split main() into its own file (app.d in vibe). seperatemainwithport - main() using branch addporttoconnection. addporttoconnection - add no standard port selection to Connection. fixfordmd2058 - cosmetic changes to work with dmd-2.058. fixresultset - allow the return of an empty resultset. When iterating schema, test had no tables and would crash. fixconnection - would only connect to localhost in Steve's code. I have other changes that I haven't pushed up yet relating to NUMERIC and null variants with a more detailed main.d. Vibe.d looks interesting, I hope these fixes help.
Question about using regex
While following the regex discussion, I have been compiling the examples
to help with my understanding of how it works.
>From Dmitry's example page:
http://blackwhale.github.com/regular-expression.html
and from the dlang.org website:
http://dlang.org/phobos/std_regex.html
std.regex.replace calls a delegate
auto delegate(Captures!string)
which does not compile. The definition in Phobos for Captures is
struct Captures(R,DIndex)
and for the purposes of these examples changing the delegate to
auto delegate(Captures!(string,uint))
seems to work. Is this correct?
In another example on Dmitry's page that starts:
auto m = match("Ranges are hot!", r"(\w)\w*(\w)"); //at least 3
"word" symbols
The output from the example is "Ranges, R, s", but I don't quite
understand why those where the matches in this case. Also does the
regular expression imply match at least 2 "word" symbols where \w* means
match 0 or more "word" symbols?
These newsgroups are a great resource, keep up the great work!
