June 18, 2013 [dmd-internals] Renaming Object to RootObject? Is this really necessary? | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/2198 This breaks a pile of pull requests. I also have a hard time seeing why it is necessary in the conversion of the C++ source code to D source. After all, the root Object pretty much mimics the the D Object. So just leave it as Object. _______________________________________________ dmd-internals mailing list dmd-internals@puremagic.com http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/dmd-internals |

| As I said in the pull request discussion, Object and RootObject do not have the same API. Complete automatic conversion is not possible as the glue layer needs to reference Object/RootObject, and must stay written in C++.
