I will enable the GDC "compiler" (and DMD) on Linux too while we look for a solution. As GDC was available on Mac, I kinda assumed it was on Linux too... :-)
coool.
The solution I mean is that currently D support is treated as an alternative C/C++ compiler, and that implementation limps a little so it might need to be revised.
would it be a good idea to call
one instance of gdc/dmd to build all 'modified' files (that need to be compiled)
vs the traditional one call per file ?
not sure if it's worth it, but from a test I did on Windows w. gdc,
when all the files needed to be compiled (eg building a new lib),
I saved something like 40% of total compile time.
probably something to do w. having to reparse all required imported files on each seperate call ?
...
hehe, then again, what about 'DI' 'precompiled' files support ?
just suggestions anyways.
thank you,
