Hi to all here,
(another one here that wants to desperately use D in his work
environment!)
So, I am a C# and C++ guy who is used to high quality tools and
UI libraries. I discovered VisualD and I settled on using it,
it is really awesome!
The only problem that concerns me is the lack of a UI library
to use with the language. GTK+ is not an option for me. Qt is
but I do not see any way to use it from D.
I am thinking about using D for the business logic of my
programs (let's say on Windows, for start) and then C# for the
UI stuff.
Is there a way to access D code from C# ? Some path I need to
follow, some hint... ?
Thanks a lot for any help !

C# should be able to call any D functions declared with extern(C)
by compiling the D code as a shared library or dll and using C#'s
PInvoke tool just like you would for C.
Be aware that you will need to initialise the D runtime
(core.runtime.rt_init).
Also, loading multiple shared libs / dlls will cause pain.
