I think dicebot who maitains the arch linux package change dmd
to dynamically link with phobos by default (we don't yet do
that on any other platform).
You should be able to link statically using -L-l:libphobos2.a
or -defaultlib=libphobos2.a.
Thanks, Martin. I appreciate your time. I guess I was mixing up
two things - total static linking so the executable doesn't
depend on normal libraries, versus static linking with phobos and
friends only. The former is trickier on arch in particular (not
related to Dicebot's choice) because they don't distributed
static versions of library files as a matter of policy. But it's
really the latter that I would need to do, and I think what you
suggest will do the job.
How do I do the same on gdc and ldc ? Since running times may be
a matter of seconds, speed and startup time counts especially for
lambda. Probably starting via nodejs is an unnecessary tax, but
I guess they will get rid of that requirement in time.
