Say it in D
I just released a true Mac-style simple installer package which gives you a complete D with Tango-programming environment.
Included is GDC with libgtango together with a complete set of D and Tango documentation as well as about 50 different examples with complete source code. Installs into standard paths and does not interfere with your current environment (using isolating prefix /usr/share/gdc). This package does not require Apple Developer tools, even though it is highly recommended.
D is a general purpose systems and applications programming language. It is a higher level language than C++, but retains the ability to write high performance code and interface directly with the operating system API’s and with hardware. D is well suited to writing medium to large scale million line programs with teams of developers. D is easy to learn, provides many capabilities to aid the programmer, and is well suited to aggressive compiler optimization technology.
/* Shows how to create a basic socket client, and how to converse with a remote server. */ import tango.io.Console; import tango.net.SocketConduit, tango.net.InternetAddress; void main() { // make a connection request to the server auto request = new SocketConduit; request.connect(new InternetAddress("localhost", 8080)); request.output.write("hello\n"); // wait for response (there is an optional timeout supported) char[64] response; auto size = request.input.read(response); // close socket request.close; // display server response Cout(response[0..size]).newline; }
