Hi D

I'm trying out the vibe.d framework for the first time and it looks like many of the functions mutate some hidden global state. Take for example listenTCP. To help me build a mental picuture of the framework I'd like to see what global state is mutated, but for the life of me I can't even find the source code to listenTCP(). The obvious method of:

git clone git@github.com:vibe-d/vibe.d.git
cd vibe.d
grep -R -n listenTCP

returns many instances where listenTCP is used, but none that look like a definition. It's quite possible I just overlooked it, or maybe it's implemented as a mixin or something weird like that.

Anyway if someone can just help me find the source code to listenTCP inside vibe.d I'd be grateful.

Thanks for your time,

https://dlang.org/spec/traits.html#getLocation can be a bruteforce approach to this question when dealing with a new codebase.

My dpldocs.info search engine is not great right now but it can sometimes help find these things: http://search.dpldocs.info/?q=listenTCP Putting the name in there did find http://vibe-core.dpldocs.info/vibe.core.net.listenTCP.1.html and my website also offers a "see implementation" link at the bottom which has some inline code navigation jump links too to help. tbh i find vibe's codebase to be awfully convoluted. Part of why I made this cross-package search engine is to try to trace where some of these bugs came from.

Yes! Freaking awesome! This needs to be a link on the regular D pages, or at least in the package index pages. (Maybe it is already?)

It only has one issue from my point of view. The source code listing pages, for example this one: https://vibe-core.dpldocs.info/source/vibe.core.stream.d.html#L288 don't expand horizontally to use the given space in the browser window. Since the vibe.d sources contain many long lines I have to scroll down, find the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the page, and then scroll back up and find the function I was looking at. Do you observe the same behavior in your preferred browser, or is this just a problem in Firefox 91? No matter what, thanks for the site. I've been using it a lot!
