FYI. DMD did not work out-of-the-box on a vanilla VS2012/Win8 install.
The
Windows 8 SDK no longer includes the C++ compilers and VS2012 doesn't
setup the
Environment Variables used in sc.ini.
But the most annoying part is that using the Win8 SDK causes the linker
to spit
out dozens of external symbol resolution failures. It was at this point
that I
gave up.
Microsoft linker changing constantly and breaking things was why Zortech
decided to do their own linker back in the 80's.
BTW, nothing will get fixed if you don't file bugzilla reports!
Well, I wasn't sure if it was the linker or the libraries, because I also
go some weird corrupt file errors with shell32 for example...
