The fact that you have to use dmc to build your C/C++ code is a huge blocker for D on Windows for anyone who works in an environment which is primarily using Microsoft or Intel's compiler. It would not be possible for me to use dmc for C++ where I work, which makes using D there much harder, even if I were to end up with a project where I would have a chance of choosing to use it in D. There was a discussion about this on the D list a while back, and it was suggested that dmd at least be altered such that you could have a plugin architecture of some kind to swap out linkers. That way, even though dmd would still use dmc/optlink normally, someone other than Walter could then write and maintain a plugin which used Microsoft's compiler. So, we could potentially get support for other linkers without requiring Walter to deal with it. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
