April 13, 2014 gdc 2.064.2 in next Ubuntu LTS | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi, The next Ubuntu LTS release will include gdc-4.8 using the D 2.064.2 frontend, and I do not plan to push in any updates other than bug fixes. This may be important to bear in mind, as there may be users who choose to use gdc (I hope they do) and may develop using this version of D for the next six months, two years, or maybe six years depending on how conservative they are. Oh, and gdc should be coming to ARM in this release too. :) Regards Iain. |

Oooo ARM. Any chance for a 'supported' devices(os/cpu) list?
I've heard some interesting things like ARM architecture being
easier than x86 and would love to get into it.

By way of example, I've been trying to use dub to track down some ICE's however I don't even get that far as it seems that vibe.d has broken backwards compatibility with 2.064.2.

Usually vibe.d maintains compatibility with latest DMD frontend version and one before it. So either you are trying to use vibe.d master or can file 2.064.2 compatibility issue as a bug :)

Actually, it might be me! GDC doesn't differentiate between warning and deprecations in its diagnostics, so if -Werror is turned on, all deprecations are errors by default.
