Unfortunately, a bug turned up, causing the default dmd executable

Here's a new version:
https://github.com/dlang/visuald/releases/tag/v0.44.1


Small complaint here. Can the installer remember the previous install
dir? I get tired of typing it in every time. It remembers the dmd dir
just find(the next page).

I know it's not that big a deal ;) But would make the installer
virtually silent rather than requiring input.



As long as you don't uninstall Visual D, the path should be remembered. 
I usually just install over the previous version without uninstalling 
(no guarantee that this will work in the future, though).


[OT] LLVM 4.0 released - LDC mentioned in release notes

2017-03-13 Thread Kai Nacke via Digitalmars-d-announce

Hi all!

LLVM 4.0 has been released! See the release notes here: 
http://releases.llvm.org/4.0.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html

Downloads: http://releases.llvm.org/download.html#4.0.0

As usual LDC is mentioned in the release notes, too: 
http://releases.llvm.org/4.0.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#ldc-the-llvm-based-d-compiler

IMHO this is good advertisement for D & LDC.

Regards,
Kai

D IDE Coedit - version 3 released.

2017-03-13 Thread Basile B. via Digitalmars-d-announce
Finally, after four betas, the third version of my D IDE [0] is 
available.


The change log for this new version quite important.

Major additions:

- GDB commander, a GDB UI, only under linux.
- Project groups.
- Compiler paths, defines and select several D compilers.

Picked among the other additions:

- support for the DUB scripts (in addition to my runnable module 
system).

- support for DUB SDL projects in read-only mode.
- Halstead metrics for D.

But there is really much more [1].

As usual, I provide binaries for linux and Windows.

General purpose, platform-dependant, high-performance library

You missed it :)


I don't get this. What did I miss exactly? :)


Your OP doesn't say what Ocean does.


Right, the library itself was announced a long time ago here but 
maybe I shouldn't assume people in this forum don't change (and 
it has good memory, I know I don't :D).


Extended description, in case is useful:

Ocean is a general purpose library, compatible with both D1 and 
D2, with a focus on supporting the development of 
high-performance, real-time applications. This focus has led to 
several noteworthy design choices:


* Ocean is not cross-platform. The only supported platform is 
Linux.
* Ocean assumes a single-threaded environment. Fiber-based 
multi-tasking is favoured,

  internally.
* Ocean aims to minimise use of the D garbage collector. GC 
collect cycles can be very
  disruptive to real-time applications, so Ocean favours a model 
of allocating resources

  once then reusing them, wherever possible.

Ocean began life as an extension of Tango, some elements of which 
were eventually merged into Ocean.

Will the results of this be published somewhere?  It would be
