digitalmars.D.learn - Something like derelict but for D 2.x and Phobos?

well, title says it all - is there something like it out there?
I have tried to install Tango, but about half an hour later in path+linkage 
hell with two different versions of D, I just quit and won't do it anymore, 
ever.

So basically, I am on latest D 2.x and would like to utilize OpenGL, OpenAL, 
SDL and other goodies, along with Bud. Is there a hope?

I have some stuff for D 1.x and (GNU) Make, maybe it would work ?

I've tried your bindings a few weeks ago, and they're not working.
First, you have some variables named "ref" in OpenGL which doesn't work 
in D 1.x (unless you use the -v1 switch).
Second, and more importantly, you're still using the idiom:
   version (Windows)
     extern (Windows):
   else
     extern (C):
Which no longer works in D1.x.

Thanks, I'll take a look at updating them some day.

I updated the code to use "ref_" and removed all extern(Windows) legacy.
(Probably requires MinGW to build, but it could be considered a feature)

"Still using" is relative, the code was from 2005 and used to work then.
Tested OK now on Mac OS X 10.4 with GDC 0.24 (~ DMD 1.020), at least...

There must be some issue with GDC then, because that simply does not 
compile with, for example, either DMD 1.018 or DMD 1.023.

Derelict works with both Tango and Phobos. Additionally, while 2.0 for 
derelict is not supported, some folks have made a 2.0 port in the 
Derelict forums.

Derelict works with Phobos just fine. As for D2.0, there are enough 
people asking about that now that I've recently decided to add a 
Derelict2 branch supporting D2.0 to the subversion repository. It's 
going to be a few days before I can take the time to get it done, but 
you can expect to see it later this week.

In the meantime, there's a port someone did that is linked in the 
Derelict forums (and probably on the project wiki as well). I don't know 
if it works with the latest D2.x, since the string changes were made.

I found it! But in the meanwhile I have isntalled 1.x along with 2.x, just 
to be safe to eliminate any possible weird problems while I'm learning :)
I really look forward to 2.x release, since I really like 2.x. Also, I'm 
really into Phobos - Tango reminds me too much of Java style, which I don't 
like - but there are some features of it (Tango) that I like.. maybe there 
will be a way to use both Phobos and Tango one day. Actually, I don't 
understand why did Tango developers chose to "replace" Phobos, while it 
(Tango) could be as it is as a 3rd party library.

anyways, thanks for the help guys - looking forward to 2.x release!
