Is it possible to import the entire package, with all its subpackages
and modules? The following doesn't work (yet?):
import c; // stdio & stdlib
int main()
{
printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
}
Are you planning to support this feature?

At the moment, no. I think it's better to explicitly list the ones imported.

Not really. Suppose an opengl package with modules like gl, glu and glut. Rather than importing them all one by one, a simple "import opengl" would do the job... and imagine the package with 20-30 modules (a huge GUI library, or a DB toolkit might be such)...

Whoever wrote that should then supply an import that simply imports all the other imports!

No, they'd have to have different names.

Why? If you cannot import the package by its name anyhow, what's the problem with having a module with such a name?

I guess I'm not sure what you mean. Do you want to have this work: import foo; import foo.bar; ?

Absolutely. Since package foo is simply a directory "foo", and module foo is a file "foo.d", it should work just fine.

module foo is a file "foo.d", it should work just fine.
But that would be analogous to: struct foo { int bar; } int foo; foo.bar + foo;

| So if the package is named "foo", "import foo" would import all
| modules from it.

What happened to this? Walter, you never said anything about it. I'm
thinking 'import foo.*;' could be a work-around for that.

I thought it was clear - a 'package' can contain others simply by importing them, a-la the foo.d above. An import of foo gets all of foo's imports.

An import of foo gets all of foo's imports. I understand that, but what if module foo had a thousand files? Then foo.d would have a thousand import lines. I just tried this: \ |-e.d |-a\ |-a.d |-b.d |-c.d |-d.d a.d imports b,c and d. e.d imports a.a. If I do 'dmd -c e', I get: "Assertion failure: '0' on line 342 in file 'module.c'", so the foo.d above wouldn't work either. Carlos Santander --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Yes, it would. But forgive me, I think that a module that needs to import a thousand other modules has more pressing problems <g>.I just tried this: \ |-e.d |-a\ |-a.d |-b.d |-c.d |-d.d a.d imports b,c and d. e.d imports a.a.

Yes, having a module with the same name as its subdirectory doesn't work.

Yes, it would.
Does that mean that a "just import" module can act as a replacement for a "central header" file? As there a different way to import a whole library or would such a module be the way to go? -- Helmut Leitner leitner hls.via.at Graz, Austria www.hls-software.com
