• Can be used as a stand-alone tool or as a library. DUB compatible.
• Fully supports DMD, GDC, and LDC compilers.
• BetterC compatible, and used by default for the application.
• Library does not rely on external functions (e.g., C runtime, Druntime, OS).
• Surpasses CPU-Z, Intel's Go CPUID module, and Druntime's core.cpuid module in terms of x86-related information.
• Currently featuring 240 CPUID bits documented and counting!

The best way to compile ddcpuid is by using DUB.

Compilers supported:

• DMD >= 2.068.0 (best supported)
  • For earlier versions (tested on dmd 2.067.1), see manual compilation.
• LDC >= 1.0.0 (best optimizations, see LDC Issues)
  • For 0.17.1, see how to perform a manual compilation.
• GDC >= 7.0.0 (good optimizations, see GDC Issues)

Using dub(1) is rather straightforward.

Once installed, navigate to the root directory of the project and to perform a debug build, simply do: dub build

For a release build: dub build -b release-nobounds

To select a different compiler: dub build --compiler=ldc2

For more information, visit this page.

The Makefile relies on GNU Make (gmake/gnumake).

Available variables:

• DC: D compiler, defaults to dmd
• PREFIX: installation path prefix, defaults to /usr/local

Available actions:

• debug (default)
• release
• install
• uninstall

Examples:

• make: Produce a debug build
• make release DC=ldc: Produce a release build with LDC

Since ddcpuid only consists of two source files, both being in the src folder, it's still pretty simple to perform a compilation by hand.

Here's an example that works on any compiler:

dmd src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -ofddcpuid
ldc2 src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -ofddcpuid
gdc src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -oddcpuid

If you want an optimized build:

dmd -betterC -release -O -boundscheck=off src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -oddcpuid
ldc2 -betterC -release -O -boundscheck=off src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -oddcpuid
gdc -fno-druntime -release -O -fbounds-check=off src/ddcpuid.d src/main.d -oddcpuid

You get the idea.

Versions earlier than 11 will not compile using -fno-druntime due to linking issues: undefined reference to '__gdc_personality_v0'.

On Windows, LDC versions 1.13 and 1.14 do not include legacy_stdio_definitions.lib when linking, making it impossible to compile the project using -betterC.
