You shold tell people that other download formats such as bz2 gz zip are available from http://hg.dsource.org/projects/dwt-samples/rev/8d49c4eb4800

Ok so I have the examples in directory dwt/dwtexampes   now I want to compile them on a linux machine. Did you say this was not yet possible?

If I want to get a look at the folowing ...how do I do it
[code]
module dwtexamples.helloworld.HelloWorld1;


import dwt.widgets.Display;
import dwt.widgets.Shell;

/*
 * This example demonstrates the minimum amount of code required
 * to open an DWT Shell and process the events.
 */
void main(){
    Display display = new Display ();
    Shell shell = new Shell (display);
    shell.open ();
    while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
        if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
    }
    display.dispose ();
}

// for unknown reason, there are linker errors. These imports are the workaround
import tango.io.Stdout;
import tango.math.Math;
import tango.text.convert.Format;
import tango.util.Convert;
import tango.util.PathUtil;

Ty Tower,
The samples should work in linux. I don't see why you would need to
import any tango libraries. I use DSSS to do the building for me as there
are a lot of libs it links in.

Well Jesse thats not quite my question.
the code is from the actual program and frank says there is a bug in it and importing those libraries fixes it atm

So I have dsss too and I am trying to understand how it works ,but the dsss.conf file that comes with the samples does not seem to get me anywhere atm.

That is the question ---I have dwt installed , how do I install the samples so that I can build and inspect them all?

in dwt-linux dir do:

$ dsss build dwt
$ dsss install dwt

in dwt-samples dir do:

$ dsss build dwtexamples/helloworld/HelloWorld1.d

This should create the executable 'dwtexamples/helloworld/HelloWorld1'.
Without those imports - as the comment says - you might get linker errors.

you can also try

$ dsss build

... and all samples should be built.

Thanks Frank
did as suggested dwt-linux looks to have gone OK
dwt-samples not so but you did warn me I think

got this back on both "dsss build"  and "dsss build dwtexamples/helloworld/HelloWorld1.d"

Looked in /usr/bin/ and ld is there . What is it telling me it can't find? What does -IXdamage mean?

this look like you use gdc.
goto the dsss install dir, find the file etc/rebuild/default
change the content to "dmd-posix-tango", to ensure both dmd and tango are used.

or its simply that dsss thinks to use dmd/phobos. Still, change the default compiler profile as said above.

Please give IRC a try. If you have luck, someone (perhaps me) can help you directly in #dwt on freenode.

I don't use IRC.
I do use dmd but I think gcc is installed but this should not affect anything

I have found the file  /etc/rebuild/default and changed its one line text to "dmd-linux-tango
I have also found the file   /dsss/rebuild.conf/default  and changed its contents to "dmd-linux-tango"

This has not changed the result as yet . Is there more to be done ?
