I would like to recommend moving to a more granular approach to dsss.conf files for the samples.

In other words smaller dsss.conf files in subdirectories rather than having all samples in one huge file at the top.

Instead the huge file at the top should contain just subdir projects.

For example

---------
[dwtexamples]
type=subdir

[dwtsnippets]
type=subdir

[user]
type=subdir

version(DwtAddons) {
  [jface]
  type=subdir
}
---------

then in the jface directory you don't need the version(DwtAddons) anymore.  The fact that you're in that dir trying to build things means you want them.

-----jface/dsss.conf------
[ActionAndStatusbar.d]
[FileTreeViewer.d]
[ShowPrefs.d]
[ShowFieldPrefs.d]
[Librarian.d]

[*]
buildflags += -J../res -I../../dwt-addons -J../../dwt-addons/res
version(Windows){
    # if no console window is wanted/needed use 'windows' instead of 'console'
    #buildflags+= -L/SUBSYSTEM:windows:5
    buildflags+= -L/SUBSYSTEM:console:5
    buildflags+= -L/rc:dwt
}
------------------------------


If you think you could go for this I'll send an hg bundle that makes the change.

Thats a good idea.
But if that is changed, the module names need adjustment too.

I think it still works if you stick a -I.. (or -I..\.. etc) in the dsss.conf.

My apologies, Bill.  I remember you made this request early on, and it never got dealt with.

If Frank is good with your changes, have at it. :)
