You nailed it. It is in the dmd.conf file. Its content is this:
[Environment]
DFLAGS=-L--export-dynamic -I%@P%/../import -L-L%@P%/../lib -L-lrt
It is generated automatically from src/dmd.conf.default while building
dmd as such:
make -f posix.mak install
I see. I have never used "install" for DMD before. dmd.conf shipping in
the zip does not have -L--export-dynamic.
Here is the explanation from man ld of the Mac OS X equivalent:
-export_dynamic
Preserves all global symbols in main executables during LTO.
Without this option, Link Time Optimization is allowed to
inline and remove global functions. This option is used when
a main executable may load a plug-in which requires certain
symbols from the main executable.
Not sure what -lrt is thought. It is not defined in the man pages, does
not affect building of the libraries (druntime or phobos) but bombs out
while building the tools.
It's liking with the "rt" library. That is, librt.dylib or librt.a. This
is neither used on Mac OS X. I'm guessing "make -f posix.mak install"
will generate a dmd.conf file for Linux.
