It had been deprecated for eons and was finally removed recently. The new function to use is thread_findByAddr.

It always struck me as odd that the core.thread underscore/extern( C ) functions are actually supposed to be called directly from user code. For the rest of druntime, it's the other way round, e.g. in case of Runtime vs. rt_* …

The dll example clearly needs to be updated, but I find it interesting that it didn't fail before when compiling against a deprecated function?  Do these tests have -d on the command-line, or is it enough hat core.thread itself is build with -d?

They never got a nice wrapper like the Runtime and GC routines.  I think this was simply because they should be used so infrequently, particularly from D code, that it didn't seem worthwhile.  This should probably change.

We could always write static wrappers in the Thread class that just calls them.

But what about C code? We will have to export these functions to C one way or another, so we can't get rid of them.

Alex

The command line Walter posted included -d.

We really should stop using that function in druntime, phobos, etc...
