Has anyone used it successfully there? I'd like to try it since it has no dependencies.

I doesn't compile. There are two problems (at least) here:

* Using "int" when "size_t" should have been used and similar type issues

* Using the native API

I have no idea if the same native API can be used both for 32 and 64bit.

Any help would be appreciated if you want to port it to 64bit.

BTW, it's perfectly possible to use 32bit executables on 64bit.

Figured that out!

On Linux... what's the native API for a windowing toolkit? If you refer to Gtk, I think it will just work.

Sorry, suddenly Gtk dependencies on Windows started to look not so bad. :p Really I would have ported it if it wasn't for GtkD.

That's right and I tried that, but I don't have a 32-bit version of libgnomeui installed. These .so files often come in larger 32-bit compatibility package bundles. Looks like it wasn't important enough to make it in.

Yes, Gtk. There's probably other native libraries used as well. These are needed by DWT Linux:

I see, which distribution are you using.

That list is missing gnomevfs. And some of the others I think are pulled in by Gtk already or not strictly needed. But I'm not sure.

You can see that I use Gentoo ?

Ok, good to know. I guess I'll have to verify that list someday.

How?

I want to build dwt on linux x86_64 and I want you input before I cast my way to hell. Is it ok if, for example, I use double cast as in :

java\nonstandard\UtfBase.d(193): Error: cannot cast from ulong to UTF8index

UTF8index endIndex(in char[] s) {
    return cast(UTF8index) cast(int)s.length;
}

No reason for the second cast. Just do this:

return UTF8index(cast(int) s.length);
