Hi there,
I'm new in dlang I specially like betterC. I was hoping that d 
fibers would be implemented in without using classes, but there 
are not. Is there another way how to use async/await in dlang 
better c?

Thank you for your help
Abby

There are no async/await keywords in D yet. Have you tried 
searching for compatible packages in dub?

I have some work done in this regard, but sadly the library 
itself isn't really usable at all so if you want to put in the 
effort you'd have to probably extract the code out, but that's 
quite a bit of effort: 
https://github.com/BradleyChatha/bcstd/tree/master/source/libd/async

To make it even more annoying there's also an ASM file you'd have 
to deal with: 
https://github.com/BradleyChatha/bcstd/blob/master/source/asm/coroutine.nasm

Alternatively you could go for a C coroutine library, which 
should function *ok-ish*, but not perfect, but would likely be 
much easier than the above suggestion.

Or write your own, as is a common suggestion around here :3

Libaco provides the general gist of how it works:

I feel I didn't make it clear enough that extracting the code 
would be way too much effort than its worth, especially since I'm 
not even sure it runs on Linux. So I really wouldn't suggest 
going down that route.

A C or C++ concurrency library should work.

Another option, if you just want fibers but not true concurrency, 
would be to do some assembly trickery. Probably not too hard if 
you know assembly, but not very portable.

If the reason you're using `-betterC` is targeting asm.js or 
WebAssembly, you will need to use the JavaScript APIs of your 
environment for concurrency.

On windows you can use the fiber api 
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/procthread/fibers 
just as you would do in C.
