That depends. Is that the directory where your executable is
written? Are you launching it from inside an Visual Studio or
from the command line? Normally, the executable's directory is
on the system path, but when using VS the default configuration
is to write the executables into configuration-specific
subdirectories.
I use `dub run` from cmd or Mono-D. All .exe, .lib and .dll files
are in the root. Source files are in the subdirectory 'source'.
I tried to reduce the problem by making a simple test folder
containing the necessary .dll files, import library and source
files:
freetype6.dll
libpng12.dll
libpng3.dll
main.d
main.exe
main.obj
mupen64plus-audio-sdl.dll
mupen64plus-input-sdl.dll
mupen64plus-rsp-hle.dll
mupen64plus-video-glide64mk2.dll
mupen64plus-video-rice.dll
mupen64plus.dll
mupen64plus.lib
SDL.dll
zlib1.dll
Where main.d is:
```
import std.stdio;
version(dynamiclink) {
pragma(lib, "mupen64plus.lib");
extern(C) nothrow @nogc {
int CoreGetAPIVersions(int*, int*, int*, int*);
}
int main() {
int a, b, c, d;
CoreGetAPIVersions(&a, &b, &c, &d);
writeln("Version: ", a, " - ", b, " - ", c, " - ", d);
return 0;
}
}
version(dynamicload) {
import core.sys.windows.windows: LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress,
GetLastError;
extern(C) alias p_CoreGetAPIVersions = int function(int*, int*,
int*, int*);
p_CoreGetAPIVersions CoreGetAPIVersions;
int main() {
auto handle = LoadLibrary("mupen64plus.dll");
CoreGetAPIVersions = cast(p_CoreGetAPIVersions)
GetProcAddress(handle, "CoreGetAPIVersions");
int a, b, c, d;
CoreGetAPIVersions(&a, &b, &c, &d);
writeln("Version: ", a, " - ", b, " - ", c, " - ", d);
return 0;
}
}
```
With `dmd main.d -version=dynamicload` it works, but with `dmd
main.d -version=dynamiclink` it still gives this:
main.obj(main)
Error 42: Symbol Undefined _CoreGetAPIVersions
Error: linker exited with status 1
