Posted: 09/12/08 04:40:32 There seems to something definitely broken with 0.99.7 a few things report all kinds of errors with core/Memory.di and i've been checking regularly here http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/browser/trunk/tango/core and it allways says that Memory.di is set to svn:ignore. For example when compilling gtkd: ion.d atk\RelationSet.d atk\Selection.d atk\State.d atk\StateSet.d atk\Streamabl eContent.d atk\Table.d atk\Text.d atk\Util.d atk\ValueAtk.d -ofDD-atk.lib C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(130): Declaration expected, not ': ' C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: identifier 'BlkInfo' is not defined C:\D\tango\bin\..\import\tango\core\Memory.di(216): Error: BlkInfo is used as a type Command C:\D\tango\bin\rebuild.exe returned with code 1, aborting.

This happens in the cd lib && ./build-<compilername>.* process. If you assumed Memory.di to come from svn, you may have had things get out of synch? Also, some older versions of gdc/gdmd used to mess up the .di generation - so if you have the good ole' GDC 0.24 (not an updated 0.24 (sic!)) that may be it.

Which file did you download, which compiler (and version) do you use, and do you use dsss/rebuild (if so, which version)? If there had been anything like that wrong with those downloads, we'd most likely hear about it a long time ago.

When I replaced: import/tango/ import/std/ import/object.di with the ones from repository snapshot http://downloads.dsource.org/projects/tango/snapshots/tango-bin-win32-CURRENT-dmd.1.035.zip gtkd and dfl both now compile. It seems that the reported error about Memory.di may not actually be the problem?
