--- Comment #2 from Martin Nowak <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Steven Schveighoffer from comment #1) > This looks terrible (the original feature I mean). Do we really want to add > this to D? Can't someone just use a C/C++ compiler? What's terrible about that? It's necessary for low-level integrations, and as it isn't standardized between C compilers it would be very helpful to make it at least uniformly accessible in D. It is definitely needed in any case, and obviously gdc/ldc already support it (each with their own syntax). So this enhancement is mainly about dmd and a portable syntax between D compilers. --
