Thanks to the mild excitement displayed over the D.NET project, I've found my second wind on the project and the first thing I did was to overhaul the way arrays and slices are handled to put them in line with the D style of slicing.

I've uploaded a new version of D.NET that does proper slicing as well as a new version of my test file to show you what I've tested and what works for sure.  They can be found (respectively) at:

http://dnet.scratch-ware.net/DNET.exe
http://dnet.scratch-ware.net/main.d

Just a note if you haven't tried D.NET yet, at the moment it requires the VC++ 2005 Express Beta from Microsoft, and will continue to until I can figure out how to get VC8 to build it to work with the VC7 or VC7.1 runtimes.

Enjoy

I think you're doing a great and valuable job.

Are you counting the number of downloads of DNET from your web site?

Nice work, BTW.

Hah, no... I never thought to.  It didn't occur to me that a half-done alpha would draw the attention of more than one or two people.

Thanks :)

it could be that your provider do it for you!
for instance mine count the number of download, the refererer URL, the
country of visitor!
nothing to do, it's already done!

I'm using a university web account which doesn't do any nice hitcounting.  I'm planning on sitting down one of these days to design a real website for D.NET and Python/D (and any other projects I come up with) so I'll probably put a download counter in that :)

uh?
but python is just a scripting language!
whereas D is a system programing language!

BTW, a tad [OT], do you know about IronPython?
I discover Python with it and get win to both!

Python/D is a D API for Python<->D interop along the lines of Python/C.  I wrote this lib quite a while ago.  It allows you to embed Python in a D project or extend python using a module written in D.

Yes, I'm familiar with IronPython.  I think it's a really great idea.
