dfix 0.3.1

dfix

Tool for automatically upgrading D source code

Features

• Updates old-style alias syntax to new-style
• Fixes implicit concatenation of string literals
• Automatic conversion of C-style array declarations and parameters to D-style.
• Upgrades code to comply with DIP64 when the `--dip64` switch is specified. (Not recommended)
• Upgrades code to comply with DIP65 unless the `--dip65=false` switch is specified.
• Rewrites functions declared `const, immutable and inout` to be more clear by moving these keywords from the left side of the return type to the right side of the parameter list.

Notes

dfix will edit your files in-place. Do not use dfix on files that have no backup copies. Source control solves this problem for you. Double-check the results before checking in the modified code.

Installation

OS X users with homebrew should be able to install via `brew install dfix for the latest stable release or brew install dfix --HEAD` for the latest git master branch.

Other users should manually install, e.g. on *nix systems:

• `cd dfix`
• `git checkout v0.3.1` if you want the stable release
• `git submodule update --init`
• `make` to build
• `make test` to test
• either add the `bin` directory to your path or copy to another directory that is on your path.
