Thank you both.
I've created a D DLL [http://dlang.org/dll.html], then I've loaded it
from a C program [compiled with dmc].
However, I'd want to be able to call it from a C program compiled with
MSVC, and I got a link error - unresolved external symbol [link
testdll.obj /implib:mydll.lib /out:testdll-msvc.exe]. The LoadLibrary
works with both DMC/MSVC, but it isn't 'handy'.?.
That's because the object file formats used by DMC and MSVC are
different. DMC outputs OMF, MSCV uses COFF. If you download objconv[1],
you can use it to convert between the two formats. Something like
objconv -fcoff -nu mydll.lib mydll_mscv.lib
should do the trick.

Or did you do that already? I just realized that would likely give a
corrupt file error, not an unresolved symbol.
