D Bits- Setting Thread Affinity on Windows in D April 3, 2012When working with D's standard library, it is sometimes necessary to work around missing declarations in the core.sys.windows.windows module.

Derelict Does the Redmond Tango (Sort of)
After the last post regarding Tango-ized Derelict on Linux, I realized that the user who had tested it (waves to odeamus) was actually on Windows. The difference between the two of us is that he was compiling with Rebuild and … Continue reading
