digitalmars.D.announce - Calypso milestone hit: D adaptation of Qt5 tutorial working
- Elie Morisse (12/12) May 08 2015 Hi!
- Mike (8/20) May 08 2015 Wow! Game changing work here, IMO!
- Rainer Schuetze (5/29) May 09 2015 Very impressive indeed!
- Elie Morisse (7/16) May 09 2015 If you manage to hide every C++ symbol, including C++
- Elie Morisse (6/14) May 09 2015 from the normal compiler I should have said, sorry for the vague
- Kagamin (3/9) May 09 2015 Should be possible. If you properly encapsulate language
- Walter Bright (2/12) May 09 2015 This is really quite dazz. I'm looking forward to meeting you at DConf!
Hi! Calypso just got a D translation of the first Qt5 Widgets tutorial building and running: https://github.com/Syniurge/Calypso/blob/master/tests/calypso/qt5/qt5demo.d Result: http://homo-nebulus.fr/dlang/oh%20my.webm Compilation log: https://paste.kde.org/pewbbsw45 Previously Calypso was merely able to work with STL types, this is the first time a large C++ library is successfully mapped and used by D code (Ogre3D is probably close as well, but after Kagamin's suggestion and for a change of scene I switched my focus from Ogre3D to Qt).

Game changing work here, IMO! Question: You are using a modified version of LDC, but is that compiler required to consume link to a library created with that custom compiler? What I mean is: Can you use this modified version of LDC to create a library, and then use a generic D compiler to build an application that links to that library? Mike

Linking would work like with normal D libraries, but the .d or .di files parsed by the normal compiler would have to be emptied of C++ imports so any symbol those imports provided shouldn't appear in the .di file.Question: You are using a modified version of LDC, but is that compiler required to consume link to a library created with that custom compiler?

If you properly encapsulate language extensions, nothing should prevent using the library.
