I'm trying to find information how to port D, especially the D
runtime to a proprietary OS. The OS support seems to be scattered
around several files with a lot version (OS) switches. This makes
kind of hard to understand what you have to implement. Also, what
happens if you only have partial support, for example networking
is completely left out.
Will there be a future improvement of this so that OS specific
support can be moved to separate files and selected on module
level instead? For example.
void DSpecificLibraryFunction(...)
{
OSDependentLibraryFunction(...)
}
so that there are predefined OS specific functions that are
selected on module level. Also version() switches where
everything is consolidated into one file makes it more difficult
to merge.
Do we have any guide for OS porting?
