Okay, here's an improved version of rdmd with config files.
Added features:
- Config file
- Specify a compiler
- Specify default imports for --eval
- Specify build flags
- Option to show source with --eval
- Changed the definition of "main" with --eval to use 'in char[][]'
rather than 'string[]' (the args probably don't matter much anyway)
- Executables are stored in the temp directory, not the current
directory. This way, they can be reused even if you change directories;
and they don't clutter up your working directory.
Attached is a sample rdmd.conf as well as the modified source (based on
r958 from the phobos repository).
Heh, the last line above is just another reason to include version
information in rdmd!
If one is lazy, then a /very/ practical way is simply to have
string sourceFileVersion = "20090307 190230";
where the format is "yyyyMMdd hhmmss". A Cool guy would make his editor
look for this string in any .d file in the pre-save hook, and update it.
Entirely adequate, and a zero-effort amortized time complexity. :-)

Something like the below code (from Christopher's attachment) would make
it possible to know unambiguously and reliably what the executing
program is.
If there already isn't, there *absolutely should* exist a nice Phobos
function to do just this!!!!!
In D1 too.
version (Posix)
{
// Conforming to 4.4BSD -- this should be widely available
extern(C) size_t readlink(const char* path, char* buf, size_t
buflength);
string exePath()
{
char[1024] exe;
// linux, darwin, solaris support /proc/self/exe
// freebsd is a laggard
auto size = readlink("/proc/self/exe".ptr, &exe[0], exe.length);
if (size >= 0)
{
return assumeUnique(exe[0..size]);
}
return null;
}
}
version (Windows)
{
// Conforming to 4.4BSD -- this should be widely available
extern(C) DWORD GetModuleFileName(void* ptr, char* buf, DWORD size);
string exePath()
{
DWORD length;
char[1024] buf;
auto length = GetModuleFileName(null, buf.ptr, buf.length);
if (length)
return assumeUnique(buf[0..length]);
return null;
}
}
