hi, i need some meson configuration that works with dmd and ldc

my setting don't work. because meson complains it cannot find the d compiler.

d compiler can be invoked on command line.

i use :
set dmd_path="path/to/d/base"
set PATH=%dmd_path%\bin;%PATH%;

mingw can be detected by setting GCC_HOME

i use win7 and x86
meson 0.50.1

Are you using Windows? Meson's D support has never been tested there.
In theory though you can point it at any D compiler by setting the "DC" environment variable.

i found at early morning, that by setting variable at system level(through my computer->environment setting) meson can detect d.

it is the old usual way of setting variable that i almost forgot.

i'll try the DC variable

thanks.

Where are you stuck within dub documentation? What do you want to achieve?

Kind regards
