December 01, 2015 Wishlist for D | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi We all have experience with several programming languages and the great ideas implemented there. It is close to Xmas and I think the right time for wishes about future functions in D. Where is right place to put these inspirations on? Shall we send them directly to the D Foundation presidents? The Secretary? A central mailbox? Regards, Ozan |

It shouldn't be so difficult since a slice of them don't code anymore anyway. confere with: http://forum.dlang.org/thread/uxyvbszhtpxobewgnfnq@forum.dlang.org ;) |

If you have very specific ideas rather, you can always create an enhancement request at issues.dlang.org

My wishes:
- Less flamewars.
- A heavy template-based image manipulation library (like antigrain for c++)

As forums go this one is very calm and reasonable. A long thread disagreeing on an issue isn't a flamewar.

Posted in reply to Ozan | A "batteries included" extension to phobos modeled after the Python modules.
Esp. I'd like a standard linkage to Sqlite via D rather than C, but I'm sure that other have other most desired libraries.
Additionally, I'd like fewer language changes. D is a great language now, and changes, while interesting, are (for my purposes) of at best dubious value. (Bug fixes, of course, is a different matter.)
OTOH, I am usually not interested in compile time enhancement, but only in execution time enhancements. E.g., I generally find that using ranges is both less intelligible and less flexible than using indexed access. (I originally hoped that foreach would be to allow parallel execution, as that was the only use I could see for it. Now I'll occasionally use it, but I so often need to iterate over multiple arrays that I use indexing much more often.)

static foreach
standardized low-level optimizations you would find available in something like GNU C - e.g, address of labels(extreme performance benefit can be had when used properly,) likely/unlikely hints for conditionals
simd library, or, just an SSE implementation that works across all 3 compilers.

Cool stuff. http://blog.thecybershadow.net/2014/03/21/functional-image-processing-in-d/ |
