D's timeline
I'm working on my presentation for the conference and I'm running out of time. I'd like to ask you guys for some help locating a few dates: 1) When 0.x transitioned from alpha to beta 2) Was there a beta to release candidate transition for 0.x - 1.x? If so, when? I have the 1.00 release date, that one is easy. 3) When did the 2.x series switch similarly (alpha, beta, rc)? 4) When were the various platforms added to the release bundles? Any other events you consider major in the history of D. I've already got a bunch, but have room to include more and would hate to miss anything big. We each have our own view on what's important and I won't promise to include ones mentioned, but I'd love to have more to consider including. Please send them directly to me (bra...@puremagic.com) rather than follow up in the news group to avoid a long and not really appropriate for the announce group discussion. Thanks, Brad

DlangUI
Hello!
I would like to announce my project, DlangUI library -
cross-platform GUI for D.
https://github.com/buggins/dlangui
License: Boost License 1.0
Native library written in D (not a wrapper to other GUI library)
- easy to extend.
As a backend, uses SDL2 on any platform, Win32 API on Windows,
XCB on Linux. Other backends can be added easy.
Tested on Windows and Linux.
Supports hardware acceleration - drawing using OpenGL when built
with version=USE_OPENGL.
Unicode support.
Internationalization support.
Uses Win32 API fonts on Windows, and FreeType on other platforms.
Same look and feel can be achieved on all platforms.
Flexible look and feel - themes and styles.
API is a bit similar to Android UI.
Flexible layout, support of different screen DPI, scaling.
Uses two phase layout like in Android.
Supports drawable resources in .png and .jpeg, nine-patch pngs
and state drawables like in Android.
Single threaded. Use other threads for performing slow tasks.
Mouse oriented.
Actually, it's a port (with major redesign) of my library used
for cross-platform version of my application CoolReader from C++.
State of project: alpha. But, already can be used for simple 2D
games and simple GUI apps.
I'm keeping in mind a goal to write D language IDE based on
dlangui. :)
Adding support of 3D graphics is planned.
Currently implemented widgets:
TextWidget - simple static text (TODO: implement multiline
formatting)
ImageWidget - static image
Button - simple button with text label
ImageButton - image only button
TextImageButton - button with icon and label
CheckBox - check button with label
RadioButton - radio button with label
EditLine - single line edit
EditBox - multiline editor
VSpacer - vertical spacer - just an empty widget with
layoutHeight == FILL_PARENT, to fill vertical space in layouts
HSpacer - horizontal spacer - just an empty widget with
layoutWidth == FILL_PARENT, to fill horizontal space in layouts
ScrollBar - scroll bar
TabControl - tabs widget, allows to select one of tabs
TabHost - container for pages controlled by TabControl
TabWidget - combination of TabControl and TabHost
Layouts - Similar to layouts in Android
LinearLayout - layout children horizontally or vertically
depending on orientation
VerticalLayout - just a LinearLayout with vertical orientation
HorizontalLayout - just a LinearLayout with vertical orientation
FrameLayout - all children occupy the same place; usually onle
one of them is visible
TableLayout - children are aligned into rows and columns of table
List Views - similar to lists in Android UI API.
ListWidget - layout dynamic items horizontally or vertically (one
in row/column) with automatic scrollbar; can reuse widgets for
similar items
ListAdapter - interface to provide data and widgets for ListWidget
WidgetListAdapter - simple implementation of ListAdapter
interface - just a list of widgets (one per list item) to show
Sample project, example1 contains demo code for most of dlangui
API.
Try it using DUB:
git clone https://github.com/buggins/dlangui.git
cd dlangui
dub run dlangui:example1
Fonts note: on Linux, several .TTFs are loaded from hardcoded
paths (suitable for Ubuntu).
TODO: add fontconfig support to access all available system fonts.
Helloworld:
// main.d
import dlangui.all;
mixin DLANGUI_ENTRY_POINT;
/// entry point for dlangui based application
extern (C) int UIAppMain(string[] args) {
// resource directory search paths
string[] resourceDirs = [
appendPath(exePath, ../res/), // for Visual D and DUB
builds
appendPath(exePath, ../../res/) // for Mono-D builds
];
// setup resource directories - will use only existing
directories
Platform.instance.resourceDirs = resourceDirs;
// select translation file - for english language
Platform.instance.uiLanguage = en;
// load theme from file theme_default.xml
Platform.instance.uiTheme = theme_default;
// create window
Window window = Platform.instance.createWindow(My Window,
null);
// create some widget to show in window
window.mainWidget = (new Button()).text(Hello
worldd).textColor(0xFF); // red text
// show window
window.show();
// run message loop
return Platform.instance.enterMessageLoop();
}
DDOC generated documentation can be found there:
https://github.com/buggins/dlangui/tree/master/docs
For more info see readme and example1 code.
I would be glad to see any feedback.
Can this project be useful for someone? What features/widgets are
must have for you?

Programming in D book is about 97% translated
I have continued with the translation of the book. There are 20 of the 732 pages still to be translated. In addition to many corrections and additions throughout the book, there is the following chapter translated: * Data Sharing Concurrency As a reminder, the book is available as PDF, downloadable from the header of each chapter: http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/index.html Ali
Re: DlangUI
Nice work. As a guy who has worked on trying to get bindings for existing GUI libraries to work and noting all of the issues, I appreciate any effort in writing native libraries. The way I see it, wrapper libraries might possibly be as good as using the libraries from the native language some day, but they will never be better. Native D GUI libraries hold more potential for the future.

Neither formally nor informally. Back then, everything was all just if it's good enough for you, then go ahead and use it. The stability was more of an ever-progressing (and occasionally regressing) gradient. Also, 0.x - 1.x was only an arbitrary line in the sand. Version 1.000 was just simply the name of the next regular release after 0.1xx (whatever the xx would have been, don't recall offhand). The 1.000 moniker was more PR than technical. Similarly, version 2.000 was just simply the next mainline release after it was decided to fork off a separate no more breaking changes branch (which is what 1.x *became* when 2.000 was released). It was all definitely very much *not* semantic versioning.

That's one of the lesser-specified parts of the language, so this is really welcome. It also means that what is in there is however the current dmd works at this point in time. :p Btw, you may want to toss in a word or two about the -transition=tls switch as well. It's very useful when porting C/C++ libraries around. Ok, taking a note of it. Such feedback from you and others have been very valuable. Thank you! :) Ali My dream: Ali announces the book is 100% done at DConf 2014. -- Andrei
Re: Programming in D book is about 97% translated
Hi, Agreed, and I hope you will get a table of contents (and index) and get the book published commercially (or self-published). You have at least one buyer (me) declared. I don't know if it's enough but it would be great to collect TDPL, Cook Book and Programming in D altogether. Piotrek

For more info see readme and example1 code.
I would be glad to see any feedback.
Can this project be useful for someone? What features/widgets
are must have for you?

Nice work.
Some days ago,I test the hello world ,it need 19M Memory
Usage,but now,it's 31M,maybe have some error?
Thank you.
Nice work.

Nice work. :) Not as bad as you expected. Tried win32 release build w/o USE_SDL and USE_OPENGL version constants (using win32 API only). helloworld.exe executable size 813k, memory 6.6M on start example1.exe executable size 847k, memory 6.7M on start As I see, memory consumption grows while app is working. Probably, extra GC allocations, or some resources leaking. Can be reduced a bit, e.g. by moving to libpng from libfreeimage. Main limitation here - app needs buffer for 32bit RGBA bitmap buffer to draw into.

Here are mine. I too hope these are not too stale. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B0ahz3zZ-gZnYlBKeVZzaW03M0Eusp=sharing A lot of these need postprocessing, but doing that on all of them was just too much. That's basically why I didn't post the set earlier. But if anybody has particular photos they'd like to see processed better, I'd be glad to. Some are currently omitted due to the need to ask permission. Among these are the group photos, which will need to be edited if permission is not given. David I feared something happened to you after I wrote you several times regarding these photos, to no avail... glad to see you're okay. -- Andrei

DCD got some more performance/memory improvements and can cache autocomplete information for phobos+druntime in roughly 0.8 seconds. Caching autocomplete for Phobos, Druntime, D-Scanner, DCD, and GtkD takes 1.9 seconds and 105MB. Great news, I'll try to integrate DCD with D REPL at some point.
