Distinguish between size of type and padding for alignment

6

Dpp should represent the padding as a private ubyte[n] padding3__ and the padding should not be part of the type blob itself.

Anonymous namespace

Gets translated as: ```d extern(C++, "") ``` Which isn't valid.

atilaneves

A whitelist that recursively whitelists "dependent" types/declarations

2

Recursive for white list means pull in all things it depends on Blacklisting overrides whitelisting and aborts the recursive process at that level. Blacklist means it's just a blob

Laeeth

e.g. translated as ```d bool opBinary(string op: "!=")(bool f)(ref const(iter!(f)) arg0) ```

Dpp should generate UDAs for fields so D can check cpp memory layout

(it's implemented in a first version on my branch)

Trying to convert a big c++ library

2

Dpp gives just a few error, related to std library apparently. It seems that operator""s issue is still there ( related: https://github.com/atilaneves/dpp/issues/101 ) ``` Untranslatable cursor Cursor(ClassTemplatePartialSpecialization, "numeric_limits", Type(Unexposed, "numeric_limits"))...

Programmatically add UFCS functions to replicate eg methods and other functions that take vector arguments but with D types instead

2

So they just make a vector, map, string etc from the D side argument, call the cpp, and translate the return if needed. Tired - I meant ufcs

Laeeth

Use environment variable for -I flags as well as command-line arguments

A D mixin can access all template instantiations in module scope for C++. So as with Excel-d we can have a pre final build stage where your program writes out...

Laeeth

Write little wrappers to access the blob for commonest types

3

Array, vector, map, string, sharedptr. Anything else? I did preliminary work but it's pretty rough. And we are missing map (ilya has done in Xenon), array and sharedptr.
