Hello,
I am interested in learning OpenGL and have been following D for a couple years
now.   I have never had any interesting projects to try out on D.  So I thought
I might try writing pong in OpenGL with D.   However, I have tried using
Derelict and it doesn't seem to work with the latest DMD.   Does anybody know
how to resolve this?

Thanks

Does it not compile or not run?

Are you on windows or linux?

There are quite a few people it works for, so you need to post some specifics. : )

Also, if you are using the latest svn, if are you using something like

try
{
   DerelictGL_Load();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
   e.print();
}


might give you more detailed info about what is wrong

Make sure you are using the latest source from the trunk in subversion, and not from the zip in the downloads section of the site. A new release archive is coming once all of the documentation is completed, but it's coming slowly. If you are new to Subversion and using Windows, I strongly recommend TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/). If you need any help getting set up, or any further problems with Derelict, please post in the Derelict forum (http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=19&sid=d6f86cfb804d7c8727af1f58cd327d2c).

Do you have the latest files from the svn trunk ? http://svn.dsource.org/svn/projects/derelict/trunk/
