It isn't possible to move the files from import/std to import/core. The package names of these files are hardcoded in DMD and they have to live here. However, I think they can be eliminated when/if ... |

gdi32.lib wasn't part of the Win32 binary distribution of Tango. Now it is. Sorry about that. |

This was my initial idea, but I thought it wouldn't work because object destruction would deallocate memory. Maybe I'm just thinking in terms of C/C++ though.
If I write a deallocator that adds th ... |

Can you implement a custom allocator inside your decimal class and use "scope" for declarations you want cleaned up on scope end? ie.

Yup, Tango has gc.malloc(), gc.calloc(), and gc.realloc(). If you're using Phobos, the equivalent is "new void[x]" for memory containing pointers or "new byte[x]" for memory witho ... |

GDC seems to be making progress, but DMD may take a while. int sizes shouldn't matter because sizes are fixed in D. Or do you mean simply the C headers represented in C (std.c)? In that case, as fa ... |

The Windows API is in tango.sys.win32 now--the docs will need to be updated. Hopefully the modules there contain everything you need. If not, the appropriate declarations can be added. |

Since the dataset contains information about the DB type of the stored data, the problem is mostly a matter of converting from one known format to another. With C++/ODBC I've done pretty much as Brad ... |
