Using DMD64 (v2.068.2) on Linux CentOS 6.7, compiler was downloaded
from this link:

http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/2.x/2.068.2/dmd-2.068.2-0.fedora.x86_64.rpm

I get the following compile errors from the experimental logger class:

/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/experimental/logger/core.d(702): Error: long has no effect in expression (cast(ubyte)160u)

/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/experimental/logger/core.d(700): Error: long has no effect in expression (cast(ubyte)128u)

/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/experimental/logger/core.d(698): Error: long has no effect in expression (cast(ubyte)96u)

... etc. going on for each instance of the enum core.LogLevel that I use
in my code.

Has anyone else seen this problem with the newest DMD?  Also, is there a work around.  I'm happy to provide any further information desired to debug the problem as I'm trying to bring D into my worksite to replace code that we've previously written using a combination of Python and C.

Thanks

Solved: Finally found how to set the global log level for the entire app...

  import std.experimental.logger;
  globalLogLevel(LogLevel.warning);

Could a list of the module-level functions be provided in the documentation page for std.experimental.logger ?  Other modules such as std.file have this but it appears to be lacking for this one.
