Phobos module std/c/stdio.d:

The current dmd code uses "wchar",
but the Unix functions use wint_t

To match the C versions, they *really*
should use the wint_t / wchar_t types...


<stddef.h>
> "wchar_t"
> Integral type whose range of values can represent distinct
> wide-character codes for all members of the largest character set
> specified among the locales supported by the compilation environment

<wchar.h>
> "wint_t"
> An integral type capable of storing any valid value of wchar_t,
> or WEOF.


Could probably use type "wchar_t" in D too:

"version (Windows)  { alias wchar wchar_t; }
else version (Unix) { alias dchar wchar_t; }"

And declare the macros: (would be D constants)

> WCHAR_MAX
>     The maximum value representable by an object of type wchar_t. WCHAR_MIN
>     The minimum value representable by an object of type wchar_t. WEOF
>     Constant expression of type wint_t that is returned to indicate end-of-file.
