Hello I am new to D.

My question is:

How do you apply a .patch file?

And then I guess I have to compile the compiler again?

If yes which file do I pass to bud?

Well more than 1 question.

Hello, welcome.
 My question is:
 
 How do you apply a .patch file?
this seems to be somewhat usefull: http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:How_to_apply_a_patch windows tools (linux will already have them): http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm
 And then I guess I have to compile the compiler again?
 
 If yes which file do I pass to bud?
Unless you are primarily interested in compiler development, I'd suggest you just use DMD as is. (I'm assuming you are referring to patching DMD.)

I would like to apply patch for 2569.

It will be in the next DMD release.
