build and DDoc

Derek,

it would be nice if build was able to pass the -D option of dmd. I trying to create DDoc files and I have found out why I hate using just plain dmd. Too many entries. So, are you thinking in any time soon to create an option to pass to dmd the option to run DDoc for build?

thanks.

josé

DOH!

No, I didn't try it. I didn't think you were that SMART. Ha ha ha ha... Just kidding. WOW! I just tried it and it worked...

thanks.

Any arguments that you pass to Build which are not arguments for build will be passed to the compiler.

I should have tried it...! It's my fault.

thanks.

hmm, I tried it a while back, but it didn't seem to work very well. Maybe I did something wrong, I'll check again and report what I have later.

But, if I remember correctly, the problem was with passing .ddoc files to dmd.
build considers ".ddoc" to be a file, when it's really an "argument" to the DDoc engine.
