Has anyone tried using vibe.d with LDC? I tried modifying the bash part of the vibe launch script to use 'ldmd2 ... -run' instead of 'rdmd' but I get linker errors, presumably because LDC doesn't automatically compile dependencies. So I tried to compile the sources that came with vibe.d but since there is a main function in it I get more errors when I run the launch script since it tries to link in another main function in addition to the one in the static library.

Any ideas?

Have you tried rdmd --compiler=ldmd2?

Thanks for the reply :)

I just recompiled rdmd with LDC2 and I don't get that error anymore, however I got this error:

/usr/etc/vibe.d/source/deimos/openssl/ui.d(316): Error: Function type does not match previously declared function with the same mangled name: UI_method_get_writer

I took a look inside ui.d and rightly enough UI_method_get_writer is declared with two different return types. I googled around a bit and it turns out one of the prototypes should actually be for UI_method_get_opener, so I changed it.

Now when I run 'vibe' I get some undefined references to several lambda functions: http://pastebin.com/VfYKfjPs

Thanks for the report – ironically enough, I wrote both the code that emits the warning and that buggy piece of Deimos headers. ;) Will push a fix.

Ah, geez – you are running the latest LDC beta resp. Git version, right? I though we had sorted out the lambda visibility issues… Could you please report a bug at https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues, even if you don't yet have a reduced test case?

I built LDC from github about a week ago, a couple of days before the beta announcement you made recently. I'll try out that beta to see if the issue is fixed and if it isn't I'll make a bug report.
