digitalmars.D - Table not shown in http://dlang.org/library/std/process.html
- Timothee Cour via Digitalmars-d (7/7) Aug 12 2014 There used to be a table; not anymore; the table seems flattened as text...
- Lars T. Kyllingstad (12/24) Aug 13 2014 This would appear to be an incompatibility between the DDOC
- Nick Treleaven (7/10) Aug 13 2014 Googling for 'process site:dlang.org' for me shows:
There used to be a table; not anymore; the table seems flattened as text as follows: The following table compactly summarises the different process creation functions and how they relate to each other: Runs program directly Runs shell command Low-level process creation spawnProcess spawnShell Automatic input/output redirection using pipes pipeProcess pipeShell Execute and wait for completion, collect output execute executeShell

It's not specific to std.process; you'll see the same thing other places where the same table macro is used, e.g. for std.string.icmp: http://dlang.org/library/std/string/icmp.html AFAIK, that documentation format is just a preview. I guess there are more wrinkles that need to be ironed out before it can be considered "official". Lars

We should probably fix that somehow (maybe add a temporary no-indexing hint for library/*).
