Re: D in the TIOBE top

D will probably get even more attention once GCC 4.7 Stage 3 begins in a few months (assuming D is going to be part of GCC).

It would be really great if we could put all the breaking changes into one release to minimize disruption. iirc, another breaking change is the fix to foreach.

You can create a temporary if you like: foreach(i; 0..10){ int ii = i + 1; writeln(ii, " "); } Which outputs: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The problem with trying to "fix" foreach is that it would create problems of its own. The following code would not behave correctly: foreach(i; 0..1

D vs C++

This is the page that would require your attention: http://unthought.net/c++/c_vs_c++.html I'm going to ignore the C version because it's ugly and uses a hash. I'm also going to ignore the fastest C++ version because it uses a digital trie (it's very fast but extremely memory hungry; the complexi

I don't get it. How is it able to get the name of the module like that? On Thu, Dec 23, 2010 at 9:35 PM, Andrej Mitrovic wrote: > On 12/24/10, Andrei Alexandrescu wrote: > > Don't forget to call your program stats.d or put a module stats > > declaration at its top. > > > > Andrei > > > > Hardc

Re: How is the D programming language financed?

You got me excited, so I decided to give GDC another try. I cloned the repo, and using GCC 4.4.5, it compiled without errors. I started following the examples in TDPL, but the Stat program on page 22 gives the following errors: t1.d:33: Error: void has no value t1.d:33: Error: incompatible types
