The problem is, when I compile something with -m64, I get the
error:
Can't run 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
10.0\VC\bin\amd64\link.exe', check PATH
It's looking in ...\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0, rather than
....\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0 which is specified in
sc.ini. Is there
another step that I need to do?
Thanks,

That should work as is. Some ideas:
- you might have another sc.ini in the working directory or
your HOME directory which is picked up before the one alongside
dmd.exe
- for historic reasons LINKCMD64 setting/environment variable
might also be used, maybe you have set this elsewhere in your
sc.ini
If you run dmd with option -v, it will show the used sc.ini and
the command line used to call the linker.
I only have 1 sc.ini, and -v showed the correct path. Setting the
LINKCMD64 variable in sc.ini fixed the issue, although it seems
kind of redundant as I copied LINKCMD and just added 64:
; Windows installer uncomments the version detected

LINKCMD=%VCINSTALLDIR%\bin\x86_amd64\link.exe

;VC2010 LINKCMD=%VCINSTALLDIR%\bin\amd64\link.exe
;VC2008 LINKCMD=%VCINSTALLDIR%\bin\amd64\link.exe
Thanks for that Rainer.
