Hello all, I have been following D for over a year now, and have just started my first big project. I am really enjoying it so far! I am using Cygwin, with the patched in gdc 0.24 for D 1.0 (old, I know). I am also using Make as my build system. I tried to get bud and dsss to work, but failed :( Things are working fairly well, but I sometimes have to do a "make clean". The only dependencies I have in my Makefile are "%.o: %.d" (objects depend on source). I think there are circumstances where one .d depends on another, but I'm not sure... is it every import? I tried "gdc -MM", but it said that option is not supported for D. Any recommendations? Do I need to break out sed and awk? Thanks, Ned I am documenting my experiences: http://mudge-a209.blogspot.com/2010/04/delight.html

bud, rebuild and xfbuild were designed so we wouldn't NEED Makefiles in the first place. Unless you've got a good reason, just use a recent dmd and xfbuild.

Unless you've got a good reason, just use a recent dmd and xfbuild.Yea, I looked at gdc vs. dmd and Phobos vs. Tango. I really get hit on all sides... I'd like to use dmd, because it's got better support. Also, I'm interested in the fuller library in Tango. But, I'm constrained by what I'd like to do. At some point, I'd like to make plugins for Tcl, and that means building a .dll. From my experience that can work through gdc, but not in dmd. Maybe that has changed? Thanks, Ned

I think if you pass your source directories via -I the order that *.d
get compiled doesn't matter (beyond efficiency ..).
Haven't used gdc in a long time though.
As far as dependencies, yeah, a d file will be dependent on anything it
imports. In DMD there's a -deps flag that outputs that information, and
in verbose mode, it will print out any import that it processes. I don't
know how much of that gdc has.
But I really think you shouldn't do that anyways.
