DSSS, the D Shared Software System, is a tool to ease the building, installation, configuration and acquisition of D software. DSSS 0.12 fixes some minor problems compiling with DMD 1.00 and GDC 0.21, as well as a strange bug linking against libraries with DMD+Windows (which may have been related to DMD 1.00, but I'm not confident). Also notable is that DSSS now has a source management interface, which means that the process of publishing your D software to the master DSSS source list is now quite a bit easier. The site is http://dsss.codu.org/ . To manage sources there, you simply need to register, then register with me the name of your project (yes, there is still that one manual step involved), and then you can edit your section of the master source.list whenever and however you please, through the web interface. It handles updating the master repository. Hopefully the addition of the SMI will make people a bit more willing to start making their D software available via `dsss net` :) - Gregor Richards

I'm embarrassed to have to ask, but I couldn't figure out what is the recommended way to 'install' libraries not registered with the net install. Do I just put them in the appropiate paths under the dsss path, or are there more steps involved to let dsss know about them? The net install works flawless out of the box, amazing stuff. I have registered with the SMI interface btw, as I understand the name of the project is already there I just have to wait for you to set permissions?

If there's a bud configuration file, it's as easy as: dsss build <bud-config-file> Or, you can: dsss build <source-file-with-main-function> OR, you can make a dsss.conf, which is really quite simple: name=tool_name [some_source_file_with_main.d] [some_package_to_make_a_library] etc, etc The main problem is, since bu[il]d provides no conventions for the actual /installation/ of software, any method short of making a dsss.conf can only allow you to compile it, not install it. If that's all you need, there's your solution. - Gregor RichardsIf it hasn't been set up to build with dsss, then it's a bit of a bigger problem :)Ah okay.
