- vmars316 (19/23) Apr 11 2012 A couple years ago i learned HotBasic. An awesome language.
- vmars316 (15/17) Apr 11 2012 ...ok, i downloaded PortableGit-1.7.10-preview20120409.7z
- Andrej Mitrovic (30/31) Apr 11 2012 Didn't you get this message:
- vmars316 (27/29) Apr 11 2012 Andrej,
- Andrej Mitrovic (2/3) Apr 11 2012 Remove the space between '-I' and the import path.
- vmars316 (22/25) Apr 12 2012 Ah, Thank you very much, works perfectly.
Hello Chris Miller, This is day 4 of me trying to Compile a (tutorial) myForm.d program with D/Dfl/Entice. I am not getting the answers I need from dprogramming Forums.. Could you please help me with this. I am beginning to hate D-programming. But I’ll try to hang on a bit longer. http://forum.dlang.org/thread/daltsisbevgtmkbnyovb forum.dlang.org?page=2#post-lxpqntoshkhjjempujth:40forum.dlang.org Thanks for your help...Vernon

I gave him some short instructions but apparently this post isn't in the archives for some reason. Anyway the instructions were: msysgit: $ git clone https://github.com/Rayerd/dfl.git cmd.exe (set these paths to where DM and DMD are installed) $ set dmc_path=C:\dm $ set dmd_path=C:\DMD\dmd2 $ cd dfl\win32\dfl $ makelib.bat Wait for it to build, then: $ set dfl_lib=%cd%\dfl.lib $ cd.. $ set dfl_import=%cd% $ cd ../.. $ mkdir testdfl $ cd testdfl Copy this example to a test.d file: http://wiki.dprogramming.com/Dfl/Tutorial2 And then run: $ dmd test.d -I%dfl_import% %dfl_lib% $ test.exe Ultimately you would use the dfl_import and dfl_lib variables in a build script of some sort, maybe a batch file. E.g. if you've cloned the DFL repository to C:\git\dfl you could use this build.bat batch file: echo off setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion set "DFL_LIB=C:\git\dfl\win32\dfl\dfl.lib" set "DFL_IMPORT=C:\git\dfl\win32" dmd -I%DFL_IMPORT% %DFL_LIB% test.d and this would build test.d to test.exe.

An awesome language. (www.vmars316.com has some freeware programs, with source.) Quick to write, and tiny executables. But no workem on MAC. No HotBasic GUI, so I built my own blockStyle GUI. This year I started on a DIY EECP (external heart pump), which led me to Arduino, for which I have to learn "C". Also. This year i decided to leard a language that IS crossplatform, like "D". So I Bought the "D" book. I used to program on IBM mainframes. I am a retired senior citizen. My vocation became my vacation. :) But this GitHub seems to be a horrendous chore. It looks like at least a weeks worth of asking questions. Is there any way of downloading an already built DFL_LIB & DFL_IMPORT Or if git is the only way to build these, is there a portable version available.

The myForm.exe is 743K large. That doesn't seem right. Now, I would like to compile/run the myForm.d program with Dmd, Entice, and Dfl . My Run-Entice-myForm.bat file looks like this: pause START of Run-Entice-myForm.bat setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion set "DFL_LIB=C:\D\dmd2\windows\Dfl\import\dfl\win32\dfl\dfl.lib" set "DFL_IMPORT=C:\D\dmd2\windows\Dfl\import\dfl\win32\" Entice.exe C:\D\dmd2\windows\Entice\vmPrograms\myForm\myForm.d -I%DFL_IMPORT% %DFL_LIB% If i have a -gui switch in there, i get an "Unrecognized Switch -gui" error. How can I get Entice to show GUI mode? Also, Entice reads in the entire dfl.lib into a separate Tab. Is that normal? I need some help with the "Compile Command" that Entice asks for. Nothng I try works. Thanks..vmWhat is looking for? *import* something?Remove the space between '-I' and the import path.
