Therein lies the problem.  The DSource SVN server is incompatible with

So downloading the zipfile was all I could do.

Mango uses Build exclusively at this point. You'll see various .brf 
files in both the \build and \example. You might try compiling the 
examples and going from there? Thanks for the bug report on the unittest 
~ it' clearly out of date. The examples are good to go.

I've just downloaded mango_release_1-6.zip and there's still something

Ack! That has always compiled cleanly with DMD. I think it's fixable, but I 
don't have a GDC environment. Can you try a cast(void*) on the last argument 
of that line 154? If so, I'll fix the rest. Does this mean GDC is more 
stringent?

Ack! That has always compiled cleanly with DMD. I think it's fixable, but 
I don't have a GDC environment. Can you try a cast(void*) on the last 
argument of that line 154? If so, I'll fix the rest. Does this mean GDC is 
more stringent?

(At least that error msg now has useful information <g>)

I know; shameful behaviour on my part. Thank you, and there's yet another 
zipfile update for Stewart available. Sigh.

Got it.  The Mac version of build is buggy - the .o files all go the 
working directory but when the time comes to link, it looks for them in 
the individual source directories.  But having got around that, it still 
doesn't work:

[masg2-mac:~/Documents/Prog/d] masg2% a.out
Error: could not open library libicuuc.dylib.32

Any idea where to get this?


WIAI I noticed a few more errors:

1. mango.d, required by mango.brf, is missing.

2. Small typo in readme.txt:

"Fixed bugs in unitest.d"

s/unitest/unittest

You're right, only GDC isn't stringent, it's buggy.

"These variadic functions have a special local variable declared for 
them, _argptr, which is a void* pointer to the first of the variadic 
arguments. To access the arguments, _argptr must be cast to a pointer to 
the expected argument type:"

 I understand that Mango runs on OS-X, including mango.http.client.HttpClient

I got the HTTP client unittest to compile in the end.  However, I get 
this error:

74611 FATAL mango.unittest - Unable to connect socket: Operation timed out

Could it be a proxy problem?  A grep for 'proxy' in mango.http.client 
returns nothing, so I'm guessing Mango doesn't support it yet.

I also tried my university's website, since this works without the 
proxy, but just got a segfault.  And by the way, testLayout segfaults as 
well.

Correct. Do you fancy adding that?

I guess that means Mango does not work on OS-X anymore :-(

testLayout() could possibly be a codegen issue?  It uses this syntax:

format (T[][] layout ...)

(no comma) which is intended to spare one the argptr() machinations.

At the moment I wouldn't know where to start....

Does this mean you've tested all the unittests on Windows and Linux 
recently?  Guess one of us needs to investigate where it's failing.

I'll see if I can figure out what's going on....
