- SomeDude (3/6) Mar 01 2013 And finally *this* is the place to ask such questions:
I've just started using D but, unfortunately I got an error while compiling the following D code; import std.stdio; main() { writefln("%sHello, World!"); } It gives me the following error; $ dmd hello.d Error: cannot find source code for runtime library file 'object.d' dmd might not be correctly installed. Run 'dmd -man' for installation instructions. import path[0] = /usr/local/src/phobos I installed D twice, used a shell-script second time when got the error but so phobos copied to two locations and dmd.conf has been changed accordingly. [Environment] DFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/d/phobos2 -L-L/usr/local/lib DFLAGS=-I/usr/local/src/phobos -L-L/usr/local/lib Plase tell me what is the correct location for the lib and standard .d files. I'm getting very frustrated and none bothers to address the issue. I hope I haven't made a silly mistake. Regards.

It's just that you have to put it in dmd.conf. As to your problem, I see three issues right off the bat: 1. You're resetting DFLAGS, not appending to it. Notice that the only import path listed in your error is the second one. The first one got overwritten. I'd suggest just putting it all on one line. 2. I don't know why you're listing two locations for Phobos anyway. You need a -I to point to where the Phobos src is located, and there's only one set. -I needs to point to whatever directory std and etc are in order for the compiler to find Phobos. 3. You're missing druntime's import files (hence the error, since that's where object.di is). So, you need a -I flag pointing to druntime's import directory. However, if you're not going to use your package manager to install dmd, I'd suggest that you just download the zip file, unzip it somewhere on your box, and add its linux/bin directory to your PATH. If you do that, it should all just work. - Jonathan M Davis

I have got the same error when using dmd to compile the program "msmc" https://github.com/lepisorus/msmc. Error: Error: cannot find source code for runtime library file 'object.d' dmd might not be correctly installed. Run 'dmd -man' for installation instructions Specify path to file 'object.d' with -I switch I also installed the dmd through bash script. http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?action=browse&id=D__Tutorial/StartingWithD/Compiler/DMD&oldid=D__Tutorial/InstallingDCompiler ./install-d.sh -d -v 2.065.0 I did the following modification according to the suggestion here: adding -I/home/lwang/usr/druntime/import in the dmd.conf file. Now the .conf file looks like: DFLAGS=-I/home/lwang/usr/include/d/phobos2 -I/home/lwang/usr/druntime/import -L-L/home/lwang/usr/lib You can see that everything is in my home directory. while the "druntime" directory is copied there. After doing the above, I did not get over the error. I do hope someone can help here, because it has become a pain in the butt now.
