I'll look into it, thank you. Seems like a big rabbit hole to go 
down but the project is far from set in stone.

Sorry, I haven't been following. Don't we already have an 
implementation of the "Create a CI or other infrastructure for 
measuring D’s progress and performance" project? I just 
haven't been maintaining it because there hasn't been a lot of 
interest in it while it was being maintained.


Here's the original blog post:

https://blog.thecybershadow.net/2015/05/05/is-d-slim-yet/

I'll give it a kick and get it back online if there is 
interest. Seems wasteful to reimplement it from scratch, 
though.

Your problems are easy to resolve.
BuildTools has some weird paths... but you're running VS; why 
are you

using the separate build tools distribution when you have VS
installed? This is thoroughly non-standard and weird. Just 
install the

proper C++ tools?
The path issue that lead to optlink rather than MS link should 
be

trivial to resolve, then you will not have linking problems.


yep, I fixed it already, its ok now
- install internal build tools instead separate package.
- reset VD settings (such issue was fixed by Schuetze).
- fix PATH vars.

Solve Dependency Hell:

I'm guessing this means we might even be able to use multiple 
versions of Phobos one day. However before we do that, we will 
really need to fix the use of globals in Phobos.


Honestly, I'm a bit leery about this use-multiple-versions 
approach. It feels like it carries some serious risks of code 
bloat, which may be accentuated by the fact that DUB has some 
serious dependency resolution bugs even with single version 
dependencies... :-\
