Reviving Juno on GitHub

nascent · Joined: 07 Feb 2006 Posts: 26

It seems I have missed that there has been some development happening outside SVN. But this will probably be a good thing.

https://github.com/he-the-great/Juno-Windows-Class-Library

I've made Juno 4 compile on DMD 2.056, but at this time the examples don't seem to compile or work.

I've been informed that Juno 5.1 was not what was in SVN so I will be looking at taking that update.

I will not however do as John has done and support D1 and D2 in the same branch. And most importantly my interest lies in getting it working on D2 but I will try to apply fixes to both versions.

Don't expect me to be able to claim a working Juno too quickly. Ignoring the other stuff I've put on my plate (I'll get back to this after a create my std.csv pull request), I'm not familiar with COM in any way. So not only will I have to learn and verify what I'm trying to do is possible on my system.

This is also why I have been so grateful for Richard Webb's (Numpsy) contributions.

Well Numpsy has been of great help and contributed much more then myself. Examples are compiling and working. There is still much to be done.

Also, the project is much large than my interest. Me and Numpsy really just want the COM related items. I haven't decided if this would warrant a separation of components or not, for the time being it will just be keeping things compiling.

Hi. Thanks so much for picking this up. If one would like help with the JUno D1 version, would one ask for help here?

If you are in need of help then I'd suggest posting to d.learn. No one is really watching these boards. You can email me directly (shouldn't be too hard to track that down).

As for D1. I don't expect you'll find support. I don't have interest in maintaining it and I already struggle getting Juno to a usable place for myself.

[Only reason I'm here is because I got an email from this Forum]
