I had once some crashes when calling code in an external dll
(on Windows). The problem went away after I've changed the
declaration from extern(C) to extern(System). It may be worth
trying.
Tavi.
As a general solution, that's not good advice, but in this case
it's probably so. The OpenGL functions on Windows are declared
with the stdcall calling convention, and as cdecl on other
platforms. In D code, that means they need to be declared as
extern(Windows) on Windows and extern(C) everywhere else.
extern(System) is the convenient way to do that, as the
compiler will do the right thing on each platform. Always look
at the C headers to understand how the functions are declared
before declaring them in D to make sure you've got the correct
calling convention.
Yeah you're right, though I'm having difficulty making the import
library.
implib /noi /system will generate "_name" function names, but
extern windows
expect them to be "_name@someInt". Removing system only seems to
remove the prepended "_". Any ideas?
