Compiler crashes building phobos win 2k
on std.format

a dialog box pops up say saying an error log is being created.
where is it!!!!!!?
does it contain usefull information?
is it the stderr?
I get no messages on the stdout (I guess it's call stdout on windows).

Go Start|Run, type "drwtsn32", click "ok".

That should run DrWatson, look in the specified "Log File Path" for a file called drwtsn32.log, in there should be the crash information possibly including the stack.

Sometimes, depends whether the binary contains debug symbols or not.

Nope.

Yes it is, no surprise that you got no messages, it sounds like it just died.

If I execute the same line as you have above I don't get a crash. What version of DMD do you have? Have you modified the std/format.d file? If you have could you post it here, someone can give it a go too (I am just leaving work as I write this..)

thanks.

dmd 0.101, win2k.

to be sure I deleted the dm and dmd dirs and rebuild them from the zip files.
same result.
I updated today to SP4. didn't try before updating.
Every thing goes OK on windows XP, just confirmed it.

Are you saying it does build successfully on WinXP, but fails on Win2K?

Very strange! Any chance you can minimize the example that causes it?

Well, it crashes on std.format compiled by itself.
it will be easy to start commenting code until it doesn't crash
and then add it back.
I'll do it tonight.

sorry my fault.

I was using an old version of dmd.

the win32.mak defines

DMD=\dmd\bin\dmd

my phobos is at \devel\dmd\src\phobos
and I had an older dmd version at \dmd\bin\dmd.
why don't you define it as

DMD=..\..\bin\dmd.exe
?

who drops directories on the root anyway!?
