I can make time to adjust the binding from dsource.org bindings project to druntime, but I need the requirements for druntime WinAPI.

Also there are severe problems with the libs, distributed with DMD. They're totally ancient! The d modules alone won't fix the problem. What are the legal and technical problems involved in updating the libs?

Those libraries are internally just trampolines, no code. Hence they can be updated. On 5/12/2012 11:31 AM, Gor Gyolchanyan wrote:Also there are severe problems with the libs, distributed with DMD.

Any Windows stuff in Phobos which uses Windows OS functions should be wrappping OS functions rather than simply being declarations for them. - Jonathan M DavisOn 5/12/2012 4:47 AM, Gor Gyolchanyan wrote:Is core.sys.windows.windows the right module for it?
