Did you fix the build problems yet? Or at least make them more robust?
The last time I tried to build SDC, I had to manually hack a lot of
things to work in my environment, and eventually I gave up.

This is the only issue I have on the subject:

I can't fix what I don't know is broken.

OK, I'll file bugs when I get around to trying SDC again. Right now I'm
too busy with other things, sorry...

I'll start by getting the thing to build, figure out something 
that is not working and come to me so we can have a battle plan 
(or directly make a PR if this is simple) :)

I guess the issue here is figuring out what does't work! :) 
Should I just try compiling code with sdc every now and again? I 
don't even know how much of the language works. The tests help a 
bit I guess.

You should run into something not working fast enough, don't 
worry for that :) Looking at the test suite should give you a 
good idea of what works.

I think more people would contribute, if you were more open to 
contributers.
Shooting everything down, does not help to build a 
contributer-base. Nor does hostility.

Just for the record, this is deprecated in Clang:

clang: warning: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this

If someone (maybe me) "is allowed" to change this I can complete

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/4379

that enables developing DMD in Eclipse with full intellisense and

I've tried modifying "File Types" section in Properties for DMD 
project as:

*.c - C++ Source File
*.h - C++ Header File

and

src/*.c - C++ Source File
src/*.h - C++ Header File

but neith has any affect and Intellisense still fails.

What do I have to do to make this work? Please help.

Project->Properties

here select use project settings
and setup  *.c as c++ source files and *.h as c++ header files

than Project->C/C++ Index-> Rebuild

Thanks. So I shouldn't specify src/*.[ch] just *.[ch] then.

BTW: I still can't the debugger to find source information.
How and where do I the debug build configuration to call make with

ENABLE_DEBUG=1

as argument?

I tend to simply edit posix.mak and change CFLAGS there :)

I finally got everything to work in my latest commit at

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/4379

I solved at

Project Properties =>
C/C++ Build =>
Build command: make ENABLE_DEBUG=1 -j8

Try it out!

Thanks once again, D folks.

Further, to make expression.c (14klines!) by analyzed 
Intellisense change the limit

at

Preferences => Editor => Scalability to 20000 lines :)

Works fine for me on a three year old laptop.

A technique I use is to create a 'makefile' and use it to drive 'posix.mak'. 
That way I can tweak the settings without editing posix.mak.

I still think this is something that needs fixing. The cost used 
to be prohibitive, but now we migrated to git, the cost is very 
low, and that improve the situation for contributors.
