digitalmars.D.learn - DDL problem

Hi I would like to use DDL but I couldn't get the latest svn/trunk and  
quick example to work with latest dmd. I think the syntax of templates has  
changed since it was last tested.

Sorry I should have made myself more clear. Latest d1 (1.038). If you get  
ddl from trunk and try to build quick example there will be an error about  
tango.io.FileConduit; so I changed that to tango.io.device.FileConduit;  
and it then complains about ddl\ExpContainer.d(51): Error: argument FIXUPP  
to typeof is not an expression. It is defined like:

struct ExpContainer(T){
	alias typeof(T) BaseType;
	alias T[] ArrayType;

so I tried changing that to:

struct ExpContainer(T){
	alias T BaseType;
	alias T[] ArrayType;

does this look correct. Dmd seems to think so but then there is an error  
with ddl/DynamicLibrary.d:

	template getDExport(T, char [] name) {
		static if(T.mangleof[0] == 'P'){
			typeof(T) getDExport() {
				return cast(typeof(T))getSymbol( "_D" ~  mangleSymbolName!(name) ~  
T.mangleof[1..$]).address;
				}
		} else {
			typeof(T) getDExport() {
			return cast(typeof(T))getSymbol("_D" ~  mangleSymbolName!(name) ~  
T.mangleof).address; }
		}
	}

NVM I think I've figured it out. I'll try and get in touch with a dev for  
the change to be put through.

You might try the version that Tom S. (h3r3tic) maintains.  He appears to 
be using it in his D projects and keeps adding fixes as he goes.

If you know how to use the Mercurial repository, have a look at it here:

http://team0xf.com:1024/linker

It's very likely to have already fixed the problems that still exist in the 
dsource ddl repository.
