Hello!

Seeing that we probably won't have 64bit DMD, I wonder whether gdc2 is the best bet for 64bit D2 development on Free(PC)BSD?

Is https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/wiki/Home 'official' homeepage for the project?

Does QtD build with gdc2?


Sincerely,
Gour

Iain put in some work over the weekend getting 64bit GDC working with linux.  If your willing to put in the effort to get *BSD supported by GDC then it might be.  You may also want to check DMD's plans for *BSD support.

I'm not sure but there is a fork on bitbucket that contains patches to allow QtD to build.

I plan to do it...now I've to finish my backup-migration project (besides moving from Linux to Free/PC-BSD, I migrated from Bacula to Amanda as well).

Afaict, there is no plan to make 64bit DMD soon.
