Just heard back: maybe on the pdf, probably not on print due to it not being worth the cost. Most likely they'll just be some eratta listed on the site.

hmm, that was my first time ever posting to reddit so maybe that's why. Regardless, when the dconf talks come around I'll post the link in those comments too and that'll hopefully make up for it.

@ Adam D. Ruppe: Where should we ask questions and post spotted issues regarding your pretty great book?

Packt's website has an errata section.... somewhere, I can't find it now because they redesigned the site, but a lot of chapter 1 errors are on that (typos and stuff).

If you can find that, that's one option, but I'd say just discuss it here or in the main dm.D newsgroup.

Asking because I noticed few minor things like multiple commas or too many brackets etc, but also because I am trying to go through "Interfacing with C++" chapter and I am having some problems (VC++ x64, Win7):

1st I managed to solve and I think it could be useful for other that try to follow this chapter:

http://forum.dlang.org/thread/ugkpqprobonorbdunxsx@forum.dlang.org

2nd I am now stuck with and not much idea how to continue.

http://forum.dlang.org/thread/hsglkscatlniiuacpkhe@forum.dlang.org

I am actually very much interested in this because of COFF support for Win32 in DMD merged recently.
