Hello. I am a newbie with a problem, and a question.
The problem is that when I try to build Derelict, it gives me some errors, or something like that, I am not sure but the .lib files won't show up. .lib files are supposed to show up after building right? Smile So I have Derek's build tool, and I set it up so that build.exe on the command line from any location will use the build tool (windows path thing). I run buildme.bat and the command line dumps the following on me:

BUILDING DerelictAL...

Any ideas on how to fix this?

As for the question:

I am having trouble understanding how D handles some of the library stuff (.DLLs and .libs). So if I use this library, will I no longer need to have the original .dll files (like SDL.DLL, sdlgfx.dll, etc) in the same directory with my final executable?

Not sure. Which version of dmd are you using? What operating system are you using?

The D *.lib files generated from building derelict are necessary to give you access to the actual *.dll files.

You can think of the derelict*.lib files as the D side of things. The dll's, on the other hand, contain the C code for the actual libraries: SDL, GLFW, etc. These dll's are usually provided separately. The derelict *.lib files contain D code that load the C dll and its symbols and allow you to access the C graphics functions in a pain-free manner.

The benefit of Derelict is that you just have to link with the small Derelict *.lib file when building your own program. There is no need to link up with an import library or figure out how to load the dll. That's all taken care of for you within the Derelict*.lib. The only requirement is that you know that the particular dll exists somewhere in your systems search path. If it doesn't exist somewhere, Derelict knows how to catch this error gracefully.

The DMD is version 7.51 build 020
The OS is Windows XP Home Ed SP1... Win32.

Just for convenience I'll toss in some of the code that wasn't happy from one of the files (loader.d).

BUILDING DerelictUtil...
Code:
DerelictUtil\derelict\util\loader.d(29): !(TemplateArgumentList) expected following TemplateIdentifier
26: SharedLib Derelict_LoadSharedLib(char[] libName)
27: in
28: {
29:    assert(libName !is null);
30: }
31: body
32: {
33:    return Platform_LoadSharedLib(libName);   
34: }


Code:
DerelictUtil\derelict\util\loader.d(38): !(TemplateArgumentList) expected following TemplateIdentifier
DerelictUtil\derelict\util\loader.d(38): !(TemplateArgumentList) expected following TemplateIdentifier
36: void Derelict_UnloadSharedLib(SharedLib lib)
37: {
38:    if(lib !is null && lib._handle !is null)
39:       Platform_UnloadSharedLib(lib);
40: }


Code:
DerelictUtil\derelict\util\loader.d(45): !(TemplateArgumentList) expected following TemplateIdentifier
42: void* Derelict_GetProc(SharedLib lib, char[] procName)
43: in
44: {
45:    assert(lib !is null);
46:    assert(procName !is null);
47: }
48: body
49: {
50:    if(lib._handle is null)
51:       throw new InvalidSharedLibHandleException(lib._name);
52:    return Platform_GetProc(lib, procName);   
53: }

There's no such thing as DMD 7.51. The current version is 0.129, and I just verified again that it builds Derelict just fine (as I did when it was released). Something seems amiss on your end.

The error appears to be occurring at the "!is" statement. I would check what version of dmd you have (like Mike said, the version you mention is non existant).

It appears the dmd version that you are using doesn't understand the fairly new "!is" statement. It seems to be mistaking it for a template instantiation statement (which also uses the exclamation point). That certainly shouldn't be happening with an up to date dmd compiler (0.129).

Can you try running "dmd" at the command prompt and see what it prints out?

Ah! I was looking in the wrong place for the version number. Running dmd at command gives me v0.125.

OK I've redownloaded the D compiler, linker, and such. Now it shows v0.129. Those error messages went away, but were replaced by the following :

I'm trying to reproduce this on my end and I just can't. It now looks like the import paths aren't getting set correctly, which they should be since it's all set in the scripts. Did you move anything around? Do me a favor and let me know your directory tree srtucture for Derelict, as well as what you are doing step-by-step to compile.

My initial thought was that you were calling buildme.bat from outside the Derelict tree, but trying that on my system produces different results.

To my knowledge, I didn't move anything around. What I suspect (though unlikely) is that my SVN browser did at checkout. One problem with that is that the files all seem to be there.

Step 1: I check out the files from the repository. The util I am using is TortoiseSVN.
Step 2: I run command prompt.
Step 3: CD C:\Loadz\D Language\Derelict\
Step 4: buildme
Step 5: Sad

I also tried entering "buildconfig" just before entering "buildme", and that didn't seem to do anything.

I'm stumped. I haven't the slightest idea what could be causing this, and anything I can think of is just a wild guess. The only thing that comes to mind now is that maybe some of the files are corrupt. Perhaps you should try checking out the trunk again. I'll have to think about this some more and experiment on my end to try and reproduce what you are seeing.

Whoa. I think I found the evil bug. notice my directory was
C:\Loadz\D Language\Derelict
I wondered if maybe the space in "D Language" was causing the problem - so I moved the files into C:\Loadz\Derelict. Build success.
I'd place my bet on the problem being with how either Derelict or Build parses file paths. One of them doesn't like spaces.
Anyhow, thanks for all of the help! I probably would have never caught that compiler version thing, or it would have taken me a looong time.

Good catch. It's a dmd issue, not Derelict or Build.

I was having the same problem.

Unfortunately my files are under:

C:\Documents and Settings\dwl\My Documents\code\Derelict\

Throw organization out the window! Also, I wonder if the spaces thing was keeping dmd from working when it was under the "Program Files" directory.
