Hi... A while back i had some issues with making a usable dll file, to which i did manage to figure out... Though while trying to use it with C++ i kept getting an error about a corrupted lib file...
Not sure if this is the issue you're having, but if you're using .lib files on Windows, note that DMD, the D compiler, will by default, on 32bit, output a format (OMF) that is not compatible what Visual Studio is using (COFF). For 64bit, DMD outputs COFF .lib files. For 32bit, use the -m32mscoff flag.
I had in mind the idea to create a few dlls as me and a few friends(Mixed between C++ users and D) but as the issue above I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if that's just not a possibility, I'm not quite sure WHAT I'm needing to look for to find the information about .lib files and how the work and all that cause i haven't been able to find anything if there is anything.
Mixing C++ and D DLLs should work. If you're statically linking the DLL, which requires import libraries on Windows, you might have the above issue.
