Dll support on windows is basically non existant at the moment 
and I strongly advice against trying to use it. Trust me I've 
been there. I'm currently working on propper Dll support but that 
is most likely going to take a few more months.


Your best option currently is to simply link everything 
statically.

Shared library question

2016-01-22 Thread Dibyendu Majumdar via Digitalmars-d-learn 

Hi

I am trying to create a simple shared library that exports a D 
function, but when I try to link to it I get errors such as:


 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _D7xxx12__ModuleInfoZ

Here xxx is the module inside the shared library.

I am using DMD and MS LINKER (Windows 64-bit) to create the DLL / 
LIB files.

Then I am using DMD to build the executable.

In the test program I do following:

module app;
import xxx;

void main() {
  testing(); /* exported from xxx */
}

I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong - any help appreciated.

Regards
