What is the quality of support for these rules at the moment in external tools such as linters?
- dukc 4y agoI'm personally kind of anarchic, because I use hardly any tools. Text editor and terminal, that's how I program. The compiler is my linter. So I don't know.
- dukc 4y agoUsed the wrong word. Meant "archaic", not "anarchic". Side note, D has source code tools, this being probably the most famous one: https://github.com/dlang-community/D-Scanner https://github.com/dlang-community/D-Scanner . It's just that I don't use them myself.
- mhh__ 4y agoThe rules are enforced by the compiler not a linter. Linting in a way that requires semantic analysis is not well trodden ground in D tooling. deadalnix and myself are aiming to rectify this somewhat by ramping up work on sdc, which is basically a D frontend done right.
- WalterBright 4y agoThe idea with D is to not require a linter!
