I am starting to rely on DDBI heavily, and have a lot of imporvements that I want to make. I would like to start using Tango exclusively (logging, IO, etc). This would mean that trunk would become tango only, and 0.2.5 would be the last phobos release.

Any objections from users or other developers?

none from me. There have been half-hearded attempts to homogenize at the top of some of the source files (with aliases), but go ahead and plunder /trunk. Maybe we'll see what we can do about compatibility after the fact, or with tangobos.

Just fyi, there's a branch where I was tinkering with some things... Might be worth a look before tearing things up. h3 was helping me with some more generic storage of the data.

I guess I am a little too late...

I don't like the idea... I guess I am stuck on .62. Dang it!

if you are willing to maintain the phobos side, I am willing to let it live. The problem I face is wanting to add features, but only having Tango projects to test against.

I would like to move to Tango, but I have over 20,000 lines of Phobos code on a project which involves DDBI, Juno and DFL. I want to get D in our company and I have developed many small tools and a huge app. So, right now, to try to change to Tango will slow me down.

What does maintaining it involve?

thanks,

jic

As I add features using Tango, you would need to patch to keep phobos running. For example, as I add logging, I can just hide it via version statements, but if you want that functionality, you would have to implement something similar via phobos.

I also want to add more tests, so hopefully the tests would also help.

Ok. Let's do it. I won-t promise to be on top of things, as you probably are, but I will be there, slowly like the turtle behind the rabbit.

jicman: It may still be quite a bit of work, but I believe DFL works with Tango, and that DWin has juno functionality for Tango.

I would love to help you out if it is a route you want to go.

I can help with the Tango route if that is indeed a possibility for you.

Ok, if this is a possibility for you, I can give you all the programs from the project that I have, and you can translate them to Tango. While I continue working the project with Phobos. Once I get the Tango translated project, I can then import the new changes, which I know it won't be much.

If you want, we could talk off line. It is a lot of work. Maybe someone should write a Pho2Tan program. Where given a path containing d programs, it recursively translates each *.d file to be Tango compatible. This should also work for any other libraries that are Tango compatible. Just a thought...

thanks,

jose
