May 03, 2012 Windows batch file to compile D code | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi all. I have been trying (quite badly) to get started with D for a while. On my first attempt I gave up before even compiling Hello World, because it was too difficult to find out how to even compile a program in Windows. (I know.. I said I was bad at this..) Second time around I tried harder, and wrote a Windows batch file to make compiling and running my code easier. No messing around with PATH variables or things like that, too difficult. I have been playing around with this for a year or so now, and thought it might be useful to someone else trying to learn D. So here is a batch file that will automatically compile and run your D code. If you're interested: save http://wogone.com/code/D2.BAT.TXT to your computer, rename to D2.BAT, then run D2 from a command prompt for further instructions. Hope someone finds it useful, and not too buggy! Any comments or improvements are more than welcome. |

Thanks both for the suggestions. RDMD looks useful, but am I right thinking I can't run it from anywhere unless I'm able to mess with PATH variables?
I can't figure out where to get started with DVM, so will give that a miss.

EditPad is as far as I go! I tried using Code::Blocks about a year ago, but couldn't get it to play nicely with the compiler...

DVM will handle this for you. > I can't figure out where to get started with DVM, so will give that a miss. simendsjo linked to the new URL, where no pre-compile binaries exist yet. Use this old URL until the next release: https://bitbucket.org/doob/dvm/wiki/Home 1. Download the tool: https://bitbucket.org/doob/dvm/downloads 2. run "dvm.exe install dvm" 3. open a new console window 4. run "dvm install 2.059" 5. run "dvm use 2.059" 6. now "dmd" and "rdmd" will be available You can also add the "-d" flag to the "use" command. This will set the compiler as the default compiler. Instructions are available at the URL above. -- /Jacob Carlborg |
