Linux(kubuntu) Problem

> I added in additional error handling code to try and locate what was going on and found for certain that when using the void[] read(char[] filename) and void write(char[] filename, void*) functions that they don't do anything when not running my program from within the console or from within eclipse.

with Linux when an executeable does not do anything it may not have the correct permissions set . Could this be your problem here? Check executeable,owner and group are what you want.

You must be in the same directory as the executeable or have the $PATH set to where it is or and more . But explain what you mean by run in console and run in eclipse?

Here is some of the stuff I use

char[] input = cast(char[])File("number.int").read;

char[][] readFile() {
	auto content = cast(char[][]) File("outfile.txt").read;

void writeFile(char[][] content) {
  File output = new File ("outfile.txt");
	try{	
	output.write(content);
	Stdout("Successfully over-wrote to  file 'outfile.txt'").newline;}
	catch (AddressException xy){
	    Stdout("A file exception occured: " ~ xy.toString()).newline;}



  void writeNo(int docno) {
  File output = new File ("number.int");
	try{	
	void[] y = to!(char[])(docno);
	output.write(y);
	Stdout("Successfully over-wrote to  file 'number.int'").newline;}
	  catch (AddressException xy){
	    Stdout("A file exception occured: " ~ xy.toString()).newline;}
}
