You need to link whatever file is "win.d" into the executable....and where does the "__init_win_" come from?If you don't have a file named win.d, then it'll be from a file with the command "module win;" at the top of it.

okay... but if I change something in windows.d within the src directory ... like removing the (int) from line 1523 and changing the enum to enum:uint the compiler/linker seems to pick up on it... I copied the DEVMODE struct out of the win.d and put it into the main .d program and the error went away also... Keir Blatter wrote:oah. (weird)... so why dont I have to link windows.d and strings.d in as well? are they precompiled? Floating around somewhere and 'known' about?Those are compiled in the phobos.lib library, which is always linked in.
