November 04, 2005 How to share 'version' info between files | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
How can you share version information between several modules? I have several switches that I want to set which would be overkill to set all on the command line. So I created a single file that all the others import, which would wonderfully except the compiler ignores version information from other modules. I would love to use 'static if' if not for it being useless at the module level :-| Anyone solved this problem? --- config.d --- version=MMX; version=FastBlit; version=... --- several other files --- import config; |

The issue cropped up a while back: http://www.digitalmars.com/drn-bin/wwwnews?digitalmars.D/11981 A workaround is to have a configuration file and use the @ command line syntax. For example ----- version.cmd ----- version=qwert version=yuiop ----------- dmd @version.cmd module.d or something like this....

Hmm :-| Thank you.
After reading your "version import" suggestion, I really wish that was implemented.

How about declaring constants that are not used _in actual_ code, but which are tested with static ifs?

Only problem with that is that static ifs can't be used at the module level. :\ |
