Programming Lang: C, C++, D
Description : D programming language for GCC
.
D is a systems programming language. Its focus is on combining the power and
high performance of C and C++ with the programmer productivity of modern
languages like Ruby and Python. Special attention is given to the needs of
quality assurance, documentation, management, portability and reliability.
.
D is statically typed, and compiles direct to native code. It's
multiparadigm: supporting imperative, object oriented, and template
metaprogramming styles. It's a member of the C syntax family, and its look
and feel is very close to C++'s.
.
It supports automatic memory management and introspection like Java or C#,
but also allows manual pointer manipulations when needed. It can directly
call to C libraries (though not C++ because of object model mismatches).
.
GDC is a D language front end for the GNU Compiler Collection. It supports
a number of targets and nearly all features of Digital Mars D.
The sources are provided as addition to GCC sources, which are necessary to
build it. Therefore some understaning how to build using the gcc-x.x-source
package is requires to create this package.
