Hello Elie,

Just a little build script until cmake can be used properly:

#!/bin/bash
set -x

clang++ -std=c++11 -c showcase.cpp -o showcase.cpp.o
ar rcs libshowcase.a showcase.cpp.o
/bin/rm calypso_cache*
ldc2 -cpp-args -std=c++11 -Llibshowcase.a -L-lstdc++ showcase.d


I remove the the calypso_cache otherwise there will be an error
if a previous build failed and the C++ files get modified.

It looks like the 'undefined identifier size_t;' error is just
from testStruct. If I comment out all refs/uses to testStruct
then things compile and run fine. Good stuff.

Thanks,
Kelly

P.S. If I find a little time, I'll try to get up to speed on the
code base :)

For the time being I think I need to focus on getting the Objective-C support implemented in DMD. But after that, we'll see.

Hello Elie,

The small patch for defining size_t works here. Thanks.

I just wanted to let people know that showcase.d should build fine (one deprecation warning, but not a big deal).

People might still need the small quick fixes for gen/cpp/assistbuilder.cpp, but just adding "clang::" in a couple spots shouldn't be too arduous for anybody if they really want to compile and play with Calypso.

Thanks,
Kelly

Weird, assistbuilder.cpp compiled fine here with up-to-date Clang 3.5. Did you checkout the 3.5 branch?

Nevermind it's just that CodeGen is ambiguous with clang::CodeGen although my compiler doesn't complain. Fixed.

Hi Elie.

We are really excited about your project, as it really opens up new possibilities and will certainly save many months of time.

I have struggled with building Calypso and tried various different recent release versions of clang to no avail.  (LDC/LLVM/clang build without problem).  I will post build errors shortly

Would there be any chance you could fork a version of clang that works with Calypso, and then link to it in the instructions?

Later it might also be worth using the D port of the dlang update.sh tool that I wrote so one can automate the process of downloading and building the various different pieces.  So many moving parts that it is easy for something to break.



Laeeth.

Hi Laeeth,

Could you post the errors and which compiler you are using? If you managed to build both LDC and Clang you should be pretty close to get Calypso working.

As said in the README the 3.5 branch of LLVM/Clang should work, it's stable and there hasn't been a single commit since December 8:

https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/commits/release_35

Small update: std::vector is now working.
  https://github.com/Syniurge/Calypso/blob/master/tests/calypso/libstdc%2B%2B/vector.d

I went back to simpler problems than getting Ogre to work and will focus on the C++ standard lib until the common class templates work.

That is really cool.

Thanks, just got that tangled mess of templates that is std::string working too:
