I managed to get expat to compile under DMC.  As it turns out, it's not that
hard at all.

The gist of it is that you need to hack-in some settings so it compiles
correctly.  I've outlined a method that's a little more overt than masquerading
as MSVC6.  Once you have .obj files to play with, there's almost no need to
build a .lib.  Just throw them on the command line to DMD, along with your .d
files, and you're all set.

On linux I've just copied D binding file, imported it and added -L-lexpat to Makefile. I haven't tested this fully but everything seems to work just as you wrote on your site. Are you going to provide full import file? That is what I'm most interested in. I guess I can easily add new functions but I do not wish to duplicate your work. -- Dawid Ciężarkiewicz | arael jid: arael fov.pl

My sincerest apologies for getting this out so late. My CMS had a small quirk when linking the file to the outside world; the path wasn't resolving correctly, plus the attachment headers were all wrong. http://www.djsolaries.com/pragma/media.php?id=25 Now a little warning: I banged this out in about 30 minutes, and only really made sure it compiles. There's no telling if I didn't accidentally dropped any parameters or left out some handles entirely. Hopefully, that'll be easy enough to check once it gets used for some real work. I've also linked it as a comment to the webpage I provided earlier. Enjoy! - EricAnderton at yahoo
