Im experiencing problems with writing a windows program in D 

of use but why there's no critically important for windows

something?

The core.sys.windows.* modules are translated by hand.
They're not yet complete and would benefit from your contribution.

'Nowak' Are you from Poland? If yes im too.

I dont have knowledge about making bindings or other low-level 
things so i cant help you, im just surprised that there's no that 
important function but there are others not important if compared 
to this.

How about this? 
http://www.dsource.org/projects/bindings/browser/trunk/win32

I cant manage it to work, compiled it but conflict errors on 
import. I really need this function otherwise im cooked.

Just add these declarations to the appropriate module:

extern(Windows) {

alias void function(HWND, uint, uint, uint) TIMERPROC;

uint SetTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent, uint uElapse, TIMERPROC 
lpTimerFunc);

BOOL KillTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent);
}

Better yet, put them into std.windows and submit a pull request :P

Better check this callback definition - it might be extern(System) or 
extern(C).

 lpTimerFunc);

No, it's extern(Windows). And actually it's already defined in 
core.sys.windows.windows.


 uint SetTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent, uint uElapse,


 TIMERPROC
 lpTimerFunc);

 BOOL KillTimer(HWND hWnd, uint uIDEvent);
 }

Right, which is exactly the same as extern(System) "expands" to on 
windows platform.

Ah bleh. I've failed to spot  extern(Windows){ ...}, carry on.
