Hello, a few engineers at Red Hat are taking a look at
using the D language on the desktop and have reached out to
us. They have created a list of issues. We are on the
top-level ones, and of course would appreciate any
community help as well.
Is moving to LLVM backend or LDC something that is on the
roadmap?
What does it mean to "move" to LDC? Why can't you use LDC now?
Moving the reference compiler to LLVM as was suggested in the
list.
I've never been able to understand why it matters.
Cause people think LDC is better and it would be a big win if
everyone focused just on that. It's not about which has "official
compiler" slapped on it, it's about where the development effort
is focused.
That said I dont care really, I was just curious what the
solution was to the closed source back end was.
