Hi Everyone,
Is there a list of functions and data structures, the
D-Compiler would
expect from a custom runtime?
Here's a list [1]. It's probably not complete but it's a
start. It's best to look at the source code of the existing
runtime.

thanks, thats exactly what i needed :)
I think Adam's book and work from others like that DConf talk
show that there's a lot of potential for implementing lighter
runtimes for using in embedded code, kernels etc. I've considered
playing around with it myself for writing effectively C libraries
instead in D which don't require the runtime. (Further to the
"Better C" idea.) I'm not sure how practical such a thing would
be, but praticality is rarely a concern in projects I work on
just for fun, until it turns out to actually be useful.
