The 2.0 version splits phobos into druntime and phobos libraries (thanks to Sean Kelly). This will enable both Tango and Phobos to share a common core library.

There are a lot of structural changes that go along with this, so expect some rough patches with this release. It may take a followup release to file them down. There's also some renaming of imports and function names, as a compromise with Tango names.

Mr. Bright, can we please have 64bit version of DMD 2.020? Alternatively, we can have ability to specify where 32bit libraries are in the case one wishes to use DMD 2.x on 64bit Linux box.

Thanks for wonderful news, and BIG THANKS to Sean Kelly and You for separating the core library! It is IMHO a major step forward.

Kind regards

Hooray for progress on mending the Tango/Phobos schism!

One question about the D2 release notes.  This one doesn't look quite right:
    OLD                         NEW
import std.array; 	import core.exception;

Gee, Walter -- could we change 'immutable' to 'nonchangeable'? (What have you done for me lately?)

Thank you (and Sean too!!)

This is a huge step forward for D libraries.  Great work guys!  Is the plan to eventually merge Tango and Phobos?

No plans for that at the moment. Just the ability to mix & match.

Eh, I already screwed up. There was supposed to be a change in the Exception hierarchy. I'll have to fix that next update.

I'd love to try these releases, but on a stock setup trying to compile a Hello World, I get:

E:\dmd\bin\..\src\phobos\std\stdio.d(27): module memory cannot read file
'core\memory.d'

Assuming Windows, looks like DFLAGS aren't set right in dmd\bin\sc.ini.

Should be:
DFLAGS="-I%@P%\..\src\phobos"  "-I%@P%\..\src\druntime\import"


That fixes things for me.

Works.  Thanks.  Now I just get weird, inscrutable linker errors.  This one might be a little too bleeding edge even for me.
