digitalmars.D.announce - x86-64 Tango

reply "Kris" <foo bar.com> writes:
Tango has historically had a hard time on x86-64 because of issues regarding 
_argptr and the Layout module (string formatting). David Friedman has been 
aware of the issue, and is considering resolutions.

In the meantime, I thought it worthwhile letting people know that David 
Brown has injected a patch to work around the problem (a big thank-you to 
David), and string-formatting is now operational on that platform. The SVN 
version of Tango is patched accordingly ...

you are setting -version=Posix as usual?

I had no idea I should set -version=Posix, but that didn't make any difference. 
Line 57 in tango.sys.linux.socket:

version( X86 )
{
	enum: int
	{
		SOL_SOCKET =  1,
	}
}
else
{
	// Different values on other platforms.
	static assert(0);
}

There is no "version (X86_64)" so it won't compile, doesn't matter if
"-version=Posix" is set or not.

Could you create a patch with the correct values, if they are available to
you?
