Now that GDC has been officially released with GCC 9.1...

1.  Where is development taking place? Where is HEAD?
2.  Where do we file bugs?

Thanks,
Mike

It's happening in SVN, there are a few official git mirrors however.

https://gcc.gnu.org/git/ https://repo.or.cz/w/official-gcc.git https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc

Patches are sent to the gcc-patches mailing list.

> 2.  Where do we file bugs?

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/

All this information should already be present on the gcc site.

Is that also where I can find the latest GDC with the D frontend?

Yes. D related pull requests are done in https://github.com/D-Programming-GDC/gcc (for the sake of review)

Mostly for the convenience of throwing it at the CI infrastructure beforehand.  :-)

There are two versions, only one has been committed to gcc.  I assume you're referring to the other (ddmd), which is currently floating around, but will land on trunk soon.

ah, yes, ddmd is in trunk-next branch in https://github.com/D-Programming-GDC/gcc. It's a bit behind GCC's trunk.

Hi there. Thanks for the information.

Hi. Is there any documentation for supported command-line switches? Specifically, existing GCC switches (either general ones, or other-language-specific ones co-opted for D). In particular, does the D frontend support -f-explicit-template which is probably not there in DMD?

For D specific options, you can get a list of them from the compiler:

gcc --help=d

Any common options listed in the manpage will be available for all gcc front-ends.

There does exist a documentation file for gdc (gcc/d/gdc.texi), not sure who publishes this on the gcc site, but I current cannot find any such generated content online.

Don't know what you mean by -fexplicit-template.
