Import the source file containing the external function

This seems like a workaround more than a permanent solution.
It would work, but still. I'm also not sure about the syntax
for that (Given that getReturnCode.d is in the same directory
as hello.d).
~Sam
In extern (D) functions (which is the default)
The module name is part of the mangled name.
What you are trying to do would work ,
if the getReturnType would be extern(C).
Without changing anything about the hello.d file from above, and
the only change being adding the extern keyword to the
getReturnValue.d like this:
extern int getReturnCode() {
return 4;
}
still does not compile using the command from above. I may very
well be misunderstanding you though. I've not been doing this
particularly long...
