| − | These instructions are for those who are adventurous and wish to try out the latest development (unstable!) version of D, and for developers who wish to contribute to D development. If you're looking for a stable version of D, please download the [http://dlang.org/download.html official releases] instead.

| − | ==Getting the sources==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The source code for the D compiler, runtime library, and standard library are available on [https://github.com/D-Programming-Language GitHub]. To build a working D compiler toolchain, you will need to checkout at least dmd, druntime, and phobos.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Source code structure==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The D source code assumes a particular directory structure, which you probably would want to adopt so that you don't have to fiddle with the Makefiles all the time.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Posix===
| |
| − | | |
| − | For Posix, it is assumed that you will have a common root directory where the compiler and library sources will sit under. For example, you can choose the common root directory to be /usr/src/d, then you can checkout the sources under this directory:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | % mkdir /usr/src/d
| |
| − | % cd /usr/src/d
| |
| − | % git clone git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git
| |
| − | % git clone git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime.git
| |
| − | % git clone git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that if you're planning to submit [[Pull Requests|pull requests]], you should replace the above URLs with the URLs for your ''fork'' of the official sources, not the official sources themselves.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You should end up with this directory structure:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | /usr/src/d/
| |
| − | /usr/src/d/dmd
| |
| − | /usr/src/d/druntime
| |
| − | /usr/src/d/phobos
| |
| − | </pre>

| − | ==Building the sources==
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Posix===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Assuming your sources are checked out in /usr/src/d, you can do the following to build them:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | % cd /usr/src/d/dmd/src
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak
| |
| − | % cd ../../druntime
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak
| |
| − | % cd ../phobos
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that the compiler, runtime library, and standard library have to be built in that order, as each depends on the previous one.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you're using a 64-bit platform, you may want to append "MODEL=64" to your make commands, as the default makefiles will build for 32-bit:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | % cd /usr/src/d/dmd/src
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak MODEL=64
| |
| − | % cd ../../druntime
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak MODEL=64
| |
| − | % cd ../phobos
| |
| − | % make -f posix.mak MODEL=64
| |
| − | </pre>
| |

| − | ===Windows===

| − | '''TBD'''
