Hallo,

i try to get running the examples from http://www.kmonos.net/alang/etc/d.php  under Linux

import stream;

int main( char[][] arg )
{
        stdout.writeString( "Are you happy ? " );

        char[] str = stdin.readLine();

        if( str[0]=="y" || str[0]=="Y" )
                stdout.writeLine( "That's good!" );
        else
                stdout.writeLine( "Oh, that's bad..." );

        return 0;
}

Error Message
readLine.d(7): no property 'readLine' for type '_iobuf'


Next Example:

File : eq2d.d
import math;

double[] solve_2d_eq( double a, double b, double c )
{
        double[2] x;

        x[0] = (-b + sqrt(b*b - 4*a*c)) / (2*a);
        x[1] = (-b - sqrt(b*b - 4*a*c)) / (2*a);

        return x;
}

File test.d
import c.stdio;
import eq2d;

int main( char[][] arg )
{
        double[] x = solve_2d_eq( 1, 6, 5 );
        printf( "%f %f\n", x[0], x[1] );
        return 0;
}

Last example for today:

import stream;

class Test
{
        this()
        {
                print("instance of Test created.\n");
        }
        ~this()
        {
                print("instance of Test destroyed.\n");
        }
}

int main( char[][] arg )
{
        Test t = new Test;
        stdout.writeLine('lululu...');
        return 0;
}

Output:
instance of Test created.
lululu...

The destructor is missing.

Have some one the same experience?
