### Compilers paths
|
|
|
|
The _Compilers paths_ category is used to define the paths to the compilers and to their respective versions of the standard library.
|
|
|
|
These settings are important and should be verified after the installation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Up to five D compilers can be defined.
|
|
|
|
* __DMD__: should be set to the stable DMD version. The paths are normally detected when _Dexed_ is launched for the first time.
|
|
* __GDC__: should be set to the stable GDC version. The _runtime_ and _Phobos_ sources stand in the same folder so the third field can be left empty.
|
|
* __LDC__: should be set to the stable LDC version. The _runtime_ and _Phobos_ sources stand in the same folder so the third field can be left empty.
|
|
* __User1__: can be set to any compiler, for the example the development version of DMD.
|
|
* __User2__: a second user-defined compiler.
|
|
|
|
The combo box at the top is used to select which are the paths passed to the [completion daemon](features_dcd).
|
|
If the completion daemon is launched by _Dexed_ then the change is applied directly after the validation, otherwise it has to be restarted manually.
|
|
|
|
The second combo box defines which of the 5 defined compiler matches to the _global_ alias. This way it's possible to change the compiler used in a single step, assuming that all the compilation contexts (runnable, DUB, dexed projects) are set to follow the _global_ alias.
|
|
In most of the cases this is not useful but was added to make easier testing experimental branches of DMD or the beta versions.
|
|
|
|
In other options categories one of these compilers or _global_ can be selected.
|
|
|
|
* Category _Application_, _nativeProjectCompiler_: defines the compiler used to compile a project that has the native format.
|
|
* Category [_Runnable modules_](features_runnables), _compiler_: defines the compiler used to compile a _runnable module_ or a DUB script.
|
|
* Category [_DUB build_](options_dub_build), _compiler_: defines the compiler used to compile a project that has the DUB format.
