Ported derelict to DMD 2.0...

I ported Derelict r266 to version 2.002.
If you are in a hurry, download roll down and download it.

Basically I unpacked trunk-r266.zip and...

- Global Search and Replace char[] for string

$ sed -i s/char\\[\\]/string/g $(find | grep \\.d)

- Edit buildopts/bud_common.txt and remove '-v1' line (without quotes)

- Edit line 90 of DerelictODE/derelict/ode/odemath.d, change first parameter type from 'in dReal*A' to 'inout dReal*A' (apparently a bug!)

** UPDATE **

- DerelictSDL's audio.d (line 112) video.d (lines 205 and 210) use string literals when char* are expected. Since literals are null terminated, just cast them to char*.

cast(char*)"literal"

** END UPDATE **

- In DerelictGL's gl.d, line 288:
static char vstrings[GLVersion.max + 1][] = [GLVersion.VersionNone:"Unknown",
to
static string vstrings[GLVersion.max + 1] = [GLVersion.VersionNone:"Unknown",

And it builds. Apparently thats it.

** UPDATE **

Tested and it builds on version 1.018 also. Pehaps you guys could merge the changes on Derelict's official source tree so we can use it on both DMD 1 and 2. Smile

Best Regars,

Ooh yes, I hope you guys can find some time to review & merge Alyan's patch.

I'm actually quite surprised this hasn't gotten any reply in the month and a half it's been posted. I'd like to start trying to make my code work with 2.0, but I can't really start trying to until Derelict and other dependencies are 2.0-ified. I'm sure a lot of folks are in the same boat.

I've mentioned elsewhere in the forum that I have no plans to make any changes for 2.0 until it is near to release.

* EDIT: This is not really necessary since D string literals are indeed null terminated. *

I made a mistake on converting D string literals to C strings.

cast(char*)"literal"

should be:

toStringz("literal")

The first version will most likely crash.

best,

Daniel

Actually, they don't. At least not in version 2.0. Strings are simply char[]. Arrays are not null terminated.

char* toStringz(const char[] s);
Convert array of chars s[] to a C-style 0 terminated string.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hmm... You're right indeed. My mistake. Still... I'm not sure how to do this.

I just switched to DMD 2.004 and derelict doesn't compile. The error follows:

Are you using the source from the trunk or alyan's modified version? If the former, then your problem is that it does not support D 2.0.
