Hi,

im using LDC + Tango trunk and it's working very well.
Now i tried to build QtD, following these instructions: http://dsource.org/projects/qtd/wiki/BuildLinux
And after running make and 44% of process i got strange errors:

That's a bug in ldc, forward references are a known problem. For some reason it works in dmd1 but does not in ldc, although they share the same front-end. But even dmd1 is not supported anymore. I updated the wiki.
All new development for QtD is done for D2, thus dmd only. I am sorry. The old D1 version of QtD is very limited and buggy anyway, I wouldn't use it myself if I were you.

Hi,
thanks for you reply.

I think it's best to use QtD1 this time, till D2 is stable. I used it before and i was happy with it Wink

So i have to know how to get QtD1 (which revision?) or do i have to use an older ldc revision, too?

Because I tried QtD rev 200 and there i got "reference forward" errors, too.

Best regards,
Danny.

As I said there is no problem with QtD. It is a bug in LDC. DMD1 works fine with QtD. You should use QtD from svn trunk.

Because LDC trunk isn't working...

I checked out svn trunk of qtd and tried to do 'make' but same errors Sad

i will try another ldc rev tomorrow...

Yes you can try. It may work or may not.
