Not sure if your d frontend version is as you say it is...  I get no problems checking on current development.

also, gcc-4.6 is rather old, I'd suggest switching over to gcc-4.7/4.8.

Hmm. Has the newest gdc packages not made it into Ubuntu yet? You could try installing the .deb's directly from here:

	ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gcc-4.8/
	(look for packages named gdc-4.8_4.8.1-9_${your_architecture}.deb)

It *should* be installable if your system is reasonably up-to-date.

I don't recall how old that gdc package is...  but it is old. :o)

The package made it into debian unstable about 2-3 months ago... so it will be in ubuntu+1

I vaguely remember using it, oh, about a year ago? Maybe more?

I was thinking anyway going back to debian (or a rolling system like aptosid). Mint was just a more digestible version of ubuntu (yuck) which again was just a cheap way to escape debians stubborn anti-non-free-drivers.

With open source graphic drivers now in a useable state (I don't care about 3D) I'm going back anyway.

As soon as it's installed and running gdc-4.8 I'll report about the array.length non being an lval issue.

The really, really important point for me is that GDC seems to be quite reliable and does support debugging. And in that regard Iain just today (in the other thread) gave me a lot of confidence.

Thanks again so much, Iain! ;)

Iain,

I'm very pleased to inform you that this issue is solved in gdc-4.8.

I test installed aptosid and gdc 4.8 and my code compiles fine.

Thank you so much for your work, Iain! :)

A+ -R
