Is there a way of telling when things in the library will calm down and
it'll be save to develop in D and update old code?
I started with D2 version 2.051 and created a medium-sized project
fairly quickly, but now I have a lot of deprecated methods in my code. I
couldn't keep up with all the changes and I have been hesitant to update
my code because there are still a lot of "Will be removed in
September/November/December ..." warnings in the library. Much that I
like D, I simply cannot develop in D at the moment due to the constant
changes in the Phobos library. I have this sinking feeling that this is
killing the language.
You can either stay at a given version of D. Or you could use something
more stable than Phobos. Tango, for example, is very stable. The problem
is that it doesn't receive much changes at all.
