January 04, 2019 DMD no longer requires libstdc++ | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Just a note for all DMD distro packagers out there that the DMD compiler no longer needs libstdc++ for building nor running. However, of course as there are C++ ABI tests, it's still required for running the testsuite. There are still a handful of CXX files in the DMD codebase, but once they have been converted to D too, the dependency on a host C++ compiler for building DMD can be entirely removed. Details: https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/9188 |

Before someone gets confused, as this change has been merged yesterday it will affect the next stable DMD release (2.084.1).

Awesome! Such a great milestone I gotta say.
