Hey...

2 hours into my D language experience....

Got some instructions from th digitalmars-d list for getting D installed on my Intel OS X box. Still having problems:

dnormandin@ ~/programming/dmd2/code
06:40 am >> dmd firstApp.d
ld warning: in /usr/local/gnat/lib/libgcc_s.10.5.dylib, missing
required architecture i386 in file
ld warning: in
/usr/local/gnat/lib/gcc/x86_64-apple-darwin9.6.0/4.3.4/libgcc.a, file
is not of required architecture
ld: can't open output file for writing: firstApp, errno=21
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1


First of all, if there are any D language developers tuned in, how about getting a $%&^* makefile happening to install _all_ language-related stuff where it's suppose to go?

Anyway, what's the problem _now_, given the above error message?

I'll preface this by saying I am not and have never really been a MAC user, but I have a lot of experience on Linux.

Could it be that you have a 64-bit MacOS and the 32-bit compatible libraries aren't installed?  I'm not sure how mac works, but i386 is a 32-bit architecture, and it looks like your linking with files named x86_64.

dmd is a 32-bit only compiler for now.

Again, no idea how to do this on a Mac.

It's the first time I've read those instructions, but I find them highly suspect. You shouldn't need to copy anything outside the folders from the zip file.

You did get answers in the D newsgroup ?
