The GtkD repository contains the already generated D bindings. I was
deterred from attempting the generation step myself because it involved

This little program:

This should likely go to d.learn or someplace else. As a simple exercise I
tried to build a tool that fetches a list of random news articles written by a
single person and determine his or hers time zone based on the frequencies.
I first thought the period of sleep would determine the daily rhyt

Gives an error. I don't see any problem here:
a * b; // always a pointer declaration
(a * b); // always a binary expression
There isn't one.
C++ decides if a*b=c; is a declaration or expression based on whether 'a' is a
type or a variable. That requires semantic analysis. D'

Explain why (a*b) is lvalue in bearophile's second example.
Because the expression evaluates to a temporary, which is an lvalue.
This is one of the weird things in D. The language is too complex. It takes
years to find out about the corner cases.
It's not a weird corner case at

The ambiguities are simply resolved by this rule in the language
specification: "Any ambiguities in the grammar between Statements and
Declarations are resolved by the declarations taking precedence." (
