Re: Tango for D2: All user modules ported

For those that don't know what it is, Tango is a framework library that used to be/is the de facto standard library of D1. Through the heroic efforts by Igor Stepanov, the initial porting was completed ahead of schedule. All the user modules are now ported (save for tango.math.BigInt, which right now is aliased to std.bigint... this might change in the future). All unittests pass on Linux (using LDC2) and most do on Windows. Additionally, again kudos to Igor, it compiles with -property and -w flags for all of you style purists. Additionally, most of the examples have been also ported. I have personally used Tango in few KLoC line D2 project and I find it works just as well as it did in D1. This is naturally not the end, in the coming weeks/months you can expect the following: -New Makefile based build system -Documentation creation -Ironing out of a few const related inelegancies -Revival of the support for MacOSX and FreeBSD -Revival of the GDC -Shared library creation -Dance lessons You can download the latest version of it here: https://github.com/SiegeLord/Tango-D2 FAQ Does it work alongside Phobos/does it use druntime? Yes and yes. Why are you doing this? Because I want to. That's all, -SiegeLord Awesome! :D

Following SHOO's request to add his date/time to Phobos, Walter received a phone call at home from a Tango representative. The representative stated that the Tango team (of which five people worked on the date/time code) finds that code infringing upon their license, which would make Phobos infringing if it accepted said code. Andrei Hi Andrei, thanks for the reply. I don't know how the phone call was worded, of course. Nor can I speak for the caller. Whatever, from my point of view, the message should have been that Phobos probably has problems with the code due it's high license awarenes and they could solve the issue by just asking A, B and C to be sure. Even those authors probably don't even think it would have been necessary in this case. The call should have been intended to help Phobos without interfering with the authors rights. If it really had the you steal our code undertone you describe, then it's quite unfortunate, but does not represent what at least most Tango contributers think. Has anyone bothered to ask the authors? It matters.

As far as I have heard, Tango changed it's license to be compatible with Phobos in the first place. Tango is originally based on Phobos code, and I gave explicit permission for it to be incorporated into the Tango project BSD license, but the BSD license does not permit code to flow the other way without the explicit permission of the Tango devs. Some code has moved back to Phobos, in particular Sean Don's work, because Sean Don are the developers of that code and it is their prerogative to do what they please with it. But Phobos then changed it's license and now it's incompatible again. What were the reasons for Phobos to change the license? I suspect is was discussed before, do you have a link? Phobos was formerly actually a collection of different licenses, Phobos 1.0 still is. Some was public domain. The reason it was switched (for Phobos 2) to Boost was: 1. Boost is corporate and lawyer approved, making it a no-brainer for commercial, professional use of Phobos 2. Boost is the most liberal license we were able to find 3. Public domain is not recognized in many countries 4. Having one license for Phobos makes it much easier to manage and deploy The perennial problem with the BSD license is the binary attribution clause. Tango believes it has a solution to this by embedding the appropriate string in object.d, but I don't know if this has been legally tested and it still puts a constant burden of explanation on the Tango team. It's just a problem that I can see no reason to adopt. Thank you for the explanation! :)

Hi Walter, Thanks for the commits to svn for us to testing! But the release came in a bit of a hurry. I reported two more regressions, thought there weren't marked as those because, well, I forgot to check all options.

I also need to know how you would like results to be reported. Would you like them to sit on a web page with an RSS feed, email the results to a specified list of email addresses, post to the nextgroups, post to IRC? I suggest setting it up to email the maintainers of the packages being compiled any problems with compiling them. I think it would be best to have a newsgroup/mailing list/RSS for this. At least being able to see the result in a website. I'm very curious, I'd love to be able to see the results of this automated tests =) A website would be my personal favorite. It's open to everyone and don't spam the mail folder in times of broken code.

But I am a bit disappointed with the CaseRangeStatement syntax. Why is it case 0: .. case 9: instead of case 0 .. 9: With the latter notation, ranges can be easily used together with commas, for example: case 0, 2 .. 4, 6 .. 9: And CaseRangeStatement, being inconsistent with other syntaxes using the .. operator, i.e. slicing and ForeachRangeStatement, includes the endpoint. Shouldn't D make use of another operator to express ranges that include the endpoints as Ruby or Perl6 does? I agree. I think this syntax is yet another one of those things people looking at D will say ugly and turn their heads away. When the discussion first came up in the NG, I was a bit sceptical about Andrei's suggestion for the case range statement as well. Now, I definitely think it's the best choice, and it's only because I realised it can be written like this: case 1: .. case 4: // do stuff [snip] I think it looks much better that way and users are more likely to be comfortable with the syntax. I hope it will be displayed in the examples that way. Still, the syntax at all looks a bit alien because it's a syntax addition.

Thread local storage isn't working on OSX, neither are sockets and memory mapped files (for unknown reasons). Thanks to Sean Kelly for a lot of help on the runtime library with this. Great to see a osx dmd! Thanks! But! The new folder structure (./OS/bin/) is very unfortunate. Installer scripts need to be rewritten and tutorials changed all over the net. Can't we have three release files, for windows, linux and osx? It's the way every other program I've seen in my life does it. This way the directory structure would be preserved. The download volume would be reduced (linux user don't have to download the windows stuff etc.). The users don't get confused by looking for the OS specific download. The linux package can be a tar.gz file with executable bit set already. *PLEASE* :)
