What external libraries are available
If you never herd about Meson before: 樂. https://mesonbuild.com/ Hay there I was just wondering, what is the D equivalent to C++ Boost and or Poco libraries? Just wondering because I would like to start playing with other developers libraries and use them in a collection of examples for the library. The examples will be lunched to a GitHub repository as a show case so the library developers can show a link to new potential users that seek examples. What I mean by Boost or Poco equivalent is a grouping of fully functional packages/modules. It’s ok if you recommend a single library and it is a plus if Meson build is apart of the library. I am aware of Mir Libraries being a group of libraries and incorporates the use of Meson, however I normally like to see what my options are to better plan my applications.
Where can I find a reference for compiler flags?
If you never herd about Meson before: 樂. https://mesonbuild.com/ I was surprised to find out about Visual D. And now I’m getting concerned about whether my current D projects will work on windows beings that I am about to move my operations on a Windows computer. Where can I find a reference for compiler flags? Also any recommendations for making windows compatible programs? I would like to use the standard libraries over none standard.

False positives. Unfortunately, virus scanners chronically have problems with the DMD compiler. Probably, because the object file format is very different to the more common mscoff. Please feel free to report this false positives yourself. We don't have the resources to cater for every virus scanner out there. Thanks!

Looking at:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31844584/is-there-an-api-call-to-prompt-user-for-uac-elevation
You can try something like this:
```
import core.sys.windows;
SHELLEXECUTEINFO shex;
shex.cbSize = shex.sizeof;
shex.lpVerb = "runas"; // runas, open
shex.lpFile = "rdmd";
shex.lpParameters = `"--eval=copy("""test.txt""","""C:/Program
Files/test.txt""")"`;
shex.nShow = SW_SHOW; //SW_HIDE;
shex.fMask = SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS;
BOOL retshx = ShellExecuteEx();
import core.Thread: Thread, msecs;
// Give it 5 seconds to finish
if (retshx) {
int count = 0;
DWORD exitCode;
do {
if (!GetExitCodeProcess(shex.hProcess, )) break;
if (count++ < 50) {
Thread.sleep(100.msecs);
} else break;
}
while (exitCode != STATUS_WAIT_0); // STILL_ACTIVE
CloseHandle(shex.hProcess);
}
```
Here I use rdmd with --eval, but you can use any program that
does the file handling you want.
Note that lpParameters has weird escape rules: parameters are
space separated unless quoted with ", and to get actual quotes
you use three of them like """.

Ok, any chance to switch back and forth between local/remote versions? If you developing a package and a dependency simultaneously and don't what to publish new versions of the dependency all the time I recommend specifying the path to the dependency, see "Use a folder to source a package from" [1].

File Exception, Access is denied - prompting for administrator's rights
Hello everyone, I'm Windows 10 as of right now,
I have this situation where I would like to update /hosts file,
however sometimes I do not have the required permissions, since
sometimes I forget to run the .d script with administrator's
rights. Is there any way to prompt for administrator's rights, to
save the additional effort of lots of clicks?
import std.file;
void main(){
append("C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts", "hahaha");
}
std.file.FileException@std\file.d(859):
C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts: Access is denied.
