"Changed the way coverage analysis is done so it is independent of order dependencies among modules."

!!

Oh man, thank God for this.

The changelog has been split into several pages so it can be tricky to search.

The std.windows.charset module was added a few years ago (DMD 0.140, Nov 23, 2005): http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/changelog2.html#new0140

On the other hand, I couldn't find the std.slist module in the changelog either, and it seems to be much newer:

I hope nobody gets offended by this, but I don't like that Phobos is mimicking the C++ STL so much. In a way, it seems to be losing its D flavor.

Awesome! Thanks Walter :)

BTW, 1.024 is the sexiest version number so far ;D

It's another of Andrei's ideas :-)

This versin of dmd was compiled with the latest ubuntu, which probably uses the latest C runtime library. So can you install the latest C shared runtime library?

That is a deliberate choice. My problem with the STL is not its ideas, which are sound, but the un-aesthetic implementation.

I can't (OTOH I haven't tried using it yet but I'm using a rather old copy of linux)

Why not?

Laziness/incompetence mostly. Actually it has no Internet connection so I would have to play a few fun games to get anything done.

Come to think of it though, I do have 2 blank hard drive in it that I could play with....

Short version is it would be a pain. If you can build DMD with stuff that won't require people to update it would save a lot of effort for a bunch of people.
