Wow, sometimes tough to find a good subject and issue
description.
I am working on a dynamic binding to the mantle32.dll
following
DerelictGL and DerelictCl.
Functions in the mantle dll use structs as argument types. I
would like
to define those structs in a module derelict.mantle.types (
as in
DerelictGL/CL ) and import them in module
derelict.mantle.mantle. Module
mantle does have the required hooks:
import DerelictUtil;
import some_other_module_which_needs_the_struct_definitions;
// struct definitions required
class DerelictMantleLoader : SharedLibLoader { ... }
Unfortunatelly I get an optilink error telling me that the
required
structs are undefined.
Putting the struct definitions back into module
derelict.mantle.mantle
does work, but this is not an option as it will lead to cross
import
issues later on. The structs are also required in module
some_other_module_... and that module ( which should handle
mantleExtensions ) must also be imported in module
derelict.mantle.mantle.
I tried using opaque structs in module mantle which also
didn't work.
How can I have those structs have defined in a different
module than
that which is linking to the dll ?

Is the source code so far up somewhere with the errors being
given?
Nope, only a working version with all the stuff in one module,
git DerelictMantle.
I created a version tag-less branch with the described issue and
linker problem:
https://github.com/ParticlePeter/DerelictMantle/tree/ExtensionSupport
A test project using DerelictMantle can be found here:
