"Attack" me on the content of:
http://wiki.dlang.org/Coming_From/Delphi
This is my user experience about coming from Pascal/Delphi to D.
Thank you for the work :-)
Code Rosetta, etc. => Rosetta Code.
D has a feature similar to Pascal/delphi source inclusion.
Yes, but in 99.9% cases in D you use the module system.
D has no equivalent feature. The published attribute does not
exist but instead you have some compile-time reflection<
D has some run-time features, like typeid, and other stuff in
object.d.
public bool opIn_r(char elem){
import std.algorithm;
return canFind(str,elem);
}
There are also ways to do that with an associative array, or with
a bit set in amortized O(1) or strict O(1).
In D, is is used to test the equivalence of two types, at
compile-time.
And also to compare bitwise two values, like two class references.
The D2 way is to use a struct combined with an alias this
expression:
There is also the currently not good Phobos "Typedef".
Another note worth adding is that built-in D arrays start from
index 0 and they have only size_t indexes.
There are probably several more things worth adding to that page,
but it's a nice start.
