Everything in tango/stdc/posix should be ignored when compiling on Windows. Seems like this line isn't working [1], fore some reason.

I think that the developers that are using Tango are mostly using Linux or Posix.

May I ask why you need to get tango working? It has been deprecated a long time ago and phobos (the standard library) or alternatively other packages on dub have a look of features :)

Because the only result google gave me when i searched for "dlang serial read" was tango.
If there is another library out there i don't know about and which can do serial communication as well i am looking forward to it.

Okay, it looks like 'onyx' is a library which handles serial communication in D. So tried to create a new project with DUB and add onyx as dependency but there are still some errors:

http://pastebin.com/4eRBt6XX

Any idea what i do wrong?

The onyx README seems to suggest it only works for POSIX. Did you try serial-port by any chance:
http://code.dlang.org/packages/serial-port

That does mention Windows as supported. It is quite old though, the latest github activity is from a year ago.

Thanks a lot for your answer.

I built serial-port successfully with Dub but the only thing i got is a 'test.exe' and a 'test.obj' file. I don't see any library files even though:


C:\Users\Standardbenutzer\Downloads\DUB>dub build

Placing serial-port 1.1.0 to C:\Users\Standardbenutzer\AppData\Roaming\dub\packages\...
