Thanks, Lijie.

That show the file-order is actually different, as suspected.

Have only run "build @alert" and got alert.exe? Seem not to use build\*. lib files?

Hi

so which build of D is known to compile Mango? Tried the alert example on Windows XP with D compiler versions 137 and 136 using build v1.08 and vuild v1.09 and I get the same error:

C:\d_projects\example>build -Ic:\d_libs @alert
c:\d_libs\mango\io\PickleRegistry.d(234): no 'this' for nested class PickleProxy

c:\d_libs\mango\io\PickleRegistry.d(253): no 'this' for nested class SimpleProxy

c:\d_libs\mango\io\PickleRegistry.d(272): no 'this' for nested class GuidProxy
c:\d_libs\mango\cache\HashMap.d(549): no 'this' for nested class HashEntry
c:\d_libs\mango\cache\HashMap.d(620): no 'this' for nested class HashEntry
c:\d_libs\mango\cache\HashMap.d(660): no 'this' for nested class HashEntry

Thanks for any pointers.

Some changes to Mango were made to work around a bug in the latest version(s) of DMD. Those changes are in SVN head, but they are not in the downloadable zip files. I'm afraid you'll have to get the latest updates via SVN ~ sorry about that.

There does appear to be a strange bug in the handling of static class-initialization (within DMD), though Walter hasn't acknowledged that as yet.

Thanks for the heads up Kris. I'll download the latest via SVN. 'D' specs seem to be a moving target at the moment - no criticism of Walter Bright intended - but it's hard to feel comfortable with the brittle feel of the language.

And yet, D seems so promising and beautiful
