Hi,
I'm trying to get xfbuild working.
First I found with WindowsAPI the line 70 of directx\d3d9.d has an
error. But fixing it I run into another problem:
Cannot use win32.winsock without Win32_Winsock1 defined.
winsock.d(31): Error: static assert (false) is false
I'm not sure where
I knew I should have just distributed win32 with xfbuild. Someone
screwed up the API headers.
I'll distribute the API with xfbuild in a few minutes. Thanks for
letting me know about this.
Or maybe I just cut off the directx stuff. Heh, maybe I'm to blame.
Anyway I'll fix this shortly.
I've released a few updates for my sorting algorithm in the past month.

Major changes:
* Added concurrency using taskPool
* Use any callable type as predicate (functions, delegates)
* Unittests
* Documentation
* Minor optimizations

Jude:
Got any ideas for code that is currently way less than optimal in D?
Compared to Java running on the OracleVM D is most times slower when it comes

What bearophile was referring to was the use of templates is common. D's
