Hi,
What's the current situation of using D without Phobos/Druntime?
Sometimes, it's quite useful to be able to use D to create tiny
EXEs/DLLs. For example, create simple DLL plugins that will be
loaded into non-D programs, or even not have a 50-line program
take half a meg. Additionally, some tasks require injecting a
DLL systemwide (into every running process), so it is critical
to minimize the impact by being as unintrusive as possible and
having a minimal overhead.
I've started a "framework" for this purpose a while ago[1], but
I heard of people starting similar projects since then and I
think they've gotten further than me. Would there be any
interest in collaborating and turning this into a community
project?
I'm curious, what is your motivation for pursuing this? What's
your ultimate objective?
