Duration: 50 minutes
Talk type: Presentation
Level: Intermediate to Advanced
Video: [youtube] [alternative]
Abstract: One of the forces of D is the great compile time capabilities. These come with a drawback - any tooling around D must be able to semantically analyze the whole language. SDC intend to solve that problem by providing a compiler as a library, usable by 3rd party tools.
Benefits: The talk intends to present SDC and how it works, including:
- Using JIT for CTFE
- Semantic analysis scheduled via a dependency management system.
- What is done and what remains to be done.
- The opportunities it opens for static analysis.
Speaker Bio: Amaury Sechet is a software engineer at Facebook and the main developer of SDC.
