Hi

Im experiencing problems with writing a windows program in D 
language, it's really good language width C++ speed and C# easy 
of use but why there's no critically important for windows 
programmers function SetTimer? Is there a reimplementation or 
something?

The core.sys.windows.* modules are translated by hand.
They're not yet complete and would benefit from your contribution.

Better check this callback definition - it might be extern(System) or 
extern(C).

 Better yet, put them into std.windows and submit a pull request :P

 Just add these declarations to the appropriate module:

 extern(Windows) {

 alias void function(HWND, uint, uint, uint) TIMERPROC;






 Better check this callback definition - it might be extern(System) or
 extern(C).



 No, it's extern(Windows). And actually it's already defined in
 core.sys.windows.windows.



Right, which is exactly the same as extern(System) "expands" to on 
windows platform.

'Nowak' Are you from Poland? If yes im too.

I dont have knowledge about making bindings or other low-level 
things so i cant help you, im just surprised that there's no that 
important function but there are others not important if compared 
to this.

How about this? 
http://www.dsource.org/projects/bindings/browser/trunk/win32

I cant manage it to work, compiled it but conflict errors on 
import. I really need this function otherwise im cooked.

Just add these declarations to the appropriate module:

extern(Windows) {

alias void function(HWND, uint, uint, uint) TIMERPROC;

uint SetTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent, uint uElapse, TIMERPROC 
lpTimerFunc);

BOOL KillTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent);
}
