Summary: Optlink: Error 168: >64K Global Types
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1

As reported here: https://github.com/DigitalMars/optlink/issues/21
I'm getting this error in a mid-sized application (using vibe-d and another
internal library of similar size). It appears that this limit is quite easy to
reach with moderate template use. The question is if anything can be done about
this in the linker, or if this is a fundamental limitation rooted in the object
file format.
