| Using "build <whatever> -version=<something>" with gdc makes the compilation process not to work because build is passing "-version" to gdc, when it should be "-fversion". I haven't tried other flags. |

That was a problem with a early edition of Build but its been fixed for awhile now. What version of Build are you running? Use the -info switch to display that.

To be more specific, it passes "-fversion=" when Build is compiled with the version is set to "GNU" which is what I was told is automatically set when using gdc. I can't test that here.

Here's what I'm getting (build 2.07, gdc 0.11):
| Code: | build test.d -version=uafd -V
...
Compiling with ..........
-version=uafd -fversion=Posix std/stdio.o test.o -o test
...
gdc: unrecognized option `-version=uafd'
|
Now, you're gonna tell me "then use -version because gdc won't recognize it". Yes, I agree, but I just thought maybe build could do something here. |

Ah! Now I get it.
It seems that what you are asking for is that if the Build tool gets either "-version..." or "-fversion=..." on its command line, it will both recognise it as a 'Version' request for the compiler and output it on the command line in the correct format for the environment it is running in, namely "-fversion..." for GNU (gdc) and "-version..." for Windows.
A very reasonable request. I'll get on to that.

| I was recently "accused" of giving information not totally at once but just a little bit at a time. Might've been that this time too. Anyway, I'm glad you think it's reasonable. I was starting to think it wasn't. Now I'll stop thinking or I'll try to talk you out of it... Hehe... |

You'll be happy to know that this turned out to be incredibly easy to fix.
It also applies to the use of the "-debug" switch too.
