DMD 1.034 and 2.018
August 13th, 2008 | by Aldacron |I’ve just returned from a (too) short family vacation. While I was away, Walter announced the release of DMD 1.034 and 2.018. As usual, both contain a number of bugfixes. They both also sport the long-awaited array operations. It’s rare for 1.x to get any new features.
There’s an ongoing discussion about it in digitalmars.D.announce, where Walter has challenged users to make Burton Radons’ assembler (in phobos/internal/array*.d) faster. I haven’t read the thread yet, so I don’t know if anyone has taken it up or what all the talk is about.
As usual, if you are new to D please keep in mind that the 1.x DMD series is stable and the 2.x series is, confusingly enough, a moving target and not very suitable for production code.
