(D 2.033) I'm porting a DLL to D. The DLL depends on a static library,
but when I put the library name on the command-line, dmd does not
output any DLL file. If I remove the library name from the
command-line, dmd gives linker errors and outputs an invalid DLL. How
do I make a DLL with a static library dependency?
(now using D 2.037) I used optlink separately from dmd to see whether
the problem is in dmd or optlink. It turns out to be an optlink issue.
Everything works fine when I link in phobos.lib and kernel32.lib, but as
soon as I link in lua51.lib there is no dll output. Could this be
because I compiled lua51.dll/.lib with Visual Studio? I'll try compiling
Lua with dmc.
I fixed the problem by using implib on lua51.dll to generate a new .lib
file. The DLL isn't working properly, but this is likely a different
issue; so I'll open a new thread for that if necessary.
