Tango course,<


What does he/she thinks about using D to teach? What kind of level/kind of
courses they are?



regarding a common runtime for Phobos and Tango,<


Can you give a little summary of this?

Bye and thank you,

He seems to like D and its flexibility. He didn’t explicitely talk about 
that, though. I’m not sure how to lable the level :) I think it was some 
sort of course for beginners in D but with at least some background in 
programming. They covered IO, networking, GUI et al, using Tango.


 regarding a common runtime for Phobos and Tango,<


 
 Can you give a little summary of this?


Well, there’s a project on dsource (druntime: 
http://dsource.org/projects/druntime) which is supposed to hold that 
common runtime. We didn’t really come to any conclusion because it still 
depends on Walter in some way and he wasn’t there. But apart from that, 
pretty much everyone was seeing the common runtime as the way to go.

Does that answer your questions? :)

I hope to read a report or an article about the usage of D in teaching, with
comparisons against Java too :-)
Even if it says bad things regarding D, it can be very useful still.

Another useful thing may be a list of the bugs put by students in their D
programs. This list can be used to remove some spots that are currently
bug-prone of D.



 Well, there’s a project on dsource (druntime: 
 http://dsource.org/projects/druntime)


The project says:

A freestanding version of the Tango runtime usable by Phobos and Tango<


Now we just need 'A freestanding version of the Phobos runtime usable by Tango
and Phobos' and we are even ;o)



 Does that answer your questions? :)

He didn't really get much into that, what he did talk a lot about was some of
the parts of the 
D spec that students had a hard time explaining/understanding.

and Phobos' and we are even ;o)
 


Thing is, Tango's runtime is much more self contained, IIRC it's been proven
superior several 
times as well (as in faster).
The main thing I got out of this was that a common interface for the D runtime
was a big point. 
So nothing wrong with changing the Phobos runtime to implement this interface,
it'd be a lot 
more work though for little to no gain...

As mentioned there was a compiler/runtime workshop sunday morning. I found this
one quite 
interesting. A lot of good points about flaws in the D spec (regarding future
new compilers and 
portability), general mistakes in the language design etc. were "presented".

I think the idea was to compile a list of the general conclusions, not sure who
actually did 
that (if any). Though the notes should still exist. I'm sure these would spawn
a very long NG 
thread when posted ;)

So what's the status, then, of Tango for D2?  I assume that having Phobos and
Tango be able to be used together in D2 is kind of the point of druntime.

The user code will have to be updated, and that /may/ be enough of a 
change that a branch will be required.  If you're interested in using 
Tango with D 2.0 for now I'd suggest using DSSS instead of trying to 
build the user library, and just see how it goes.  My focus is on the 
runtime, so I honestly can't say how far you'll get.

The location of things have changed and certain bits have been tightened 
up a bit compared to Tango, but the functionality should be identical to 
Tango's runtime.  With that in mind, if you want to try it out, build 
druntime and replace tango-base-dmd.lib with druntime-dmd.lib, get rid 
of the .di files in tango/core that are generated by the lib build 
process, and use the top-level memory, thread, etc, modules in their place.

The project is really just a proof of concept at this point.  I've got a 
version of Phobos for D 2.0 working on top of druntime with no problems, 
for example, but there is no official support yet for druntime from 
Phobos or Tango.

In short, druntime works just fine, but to actually use it right now 
you're pretty much on your own.  I'll be happy to answer any questions 
regarding setup, but don't have any plans yet for installation scripts, 
packaging, etc.

By the way, DMD is the only supported compiler at the moment.  I'll add 
support for the others later if the project actually takes off.

Is the new model, then, going to become that Phobos and Tango are strictly
user-level libraries that both run on top of druntime and can therefore be
arbitrarily mixed and matched in code?

I think this would do wonders, not only for de-fragmenting the D community but
for
the development of both libraries.  It seems that Phobos and Tango had been
converging to a degree in terms of feature set, etc., with lots of duplication
of
effort.  This is likely because using them in the same code base had been
mutually
exclusive, so everyone using one lib wanted that one killer feature from the
other.  Now, with mixing and matching supported, Phobos can just be what it was
designed to be, namely a compact standard library with only stuff that's very
general purpose and a more procedural and/or functional style, and Tango can be
what it was designed to be, a more Java-style standard library with just about
everything and a more OO style.

I'm really pushing my luck now, but is there any timeline for finalizing D2's
evaluation/adoption of druntime? My understanding from Sean's post is that he's
already adapted Phobos to use the shared runtime. It sounds like it'd be really
easy to drop in.
