Well, someone should add a build target to

How is the phobos.lib called to avoid conflicts?

It's a bit late to come up with this, will see if I can find enough time
for this.

phobos32.lib I suppose? Would be great if it was there. That + 
struct d-tors would make this release great for those that wait 
to be able to create C++/D apps for Win32.

It's seriously too late, unless someone else steps up and does it. I'd
need to change the build script to clean and build another Windows
target, and my time is bound to regression fixing.

This code in the build script would need to be changed.

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/installer/blob/7fa531bcaf7352f46af734d7804ab399e7c371b8/create_dmd_release/create_dmd_release.d#L383

 rainers please integrate this with win64.mak so we can get this soon.

Does DMD already link against phobos32mscoff?

I think we should not do it for the dmd 2.067 release. It would be good
to have it integrated into the test infrastructure before adding it to
the release. Yesterday I tried the unittests with Win32 COFF and hit a
regression (?): https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/4504

This code in the build script would need to be changed.

I'll look into that, but dm make tends to make it messy...

Yes. The default sc.ini expects it in windows\lib32mscoff.

Been waiting for this for almost 2 years, might as well wait for 
another release. Seriously tho, it is surprising how much little 
attention is put into C++/D integration considering all the 
recent fuss about this. And yes, I've tried mixed C++/D app on 
x64 Win, it crashes with simple writeln() call.

At least you get that far; Android doesn't even get there (though those

i really try not to be whiny about it but it is sooo frustrating. 
d advertises itself as easy to integrate with c/c++ and maybe in 
theory it is but in practice it is not true at all. simplest 
example from Adam's book I followed crashed miserable so I can 
only assume that -nobody- is mixing c++ with d on Win. I need it 
working on win so we can even start to think about using D for 
our projects but indeed iOS and Android is very next

DDMD is mixing D and C++ on all the autotester platforms.  It's not that

Honestly, I am not willing to try even less mature compiler (last

Don't get me wrong, we do want to be early adopters, but there is

I think you misunderstand. Daniel is citing DDMD project as an example 
of C++ and D working together. The output from DDMD should be identical 
to DMD, so it's not anything "new" on that side.

Ah, OK. Well, I will try mixing again after 2.067 is released and 
report back. From the changelog I don't understand what 
improvements have been made to D to increase C++ interop but that 
is not so important to us now.

Btw, who is responsible for D output for SWIG?

sure I could bug individuals to make things work for me, then 
discover another problem rinse and repeat. thing is i dont want 
things to somehow work (possibly only until next release that 
will breake it) I want to know that this is something that is

The only way bugs will get fixed is if you file them.  D/C++ interop is 
definitely _not_ mature, but it is cared about.

eg This release will fix most of the issues with using variadic functions 
across the D/C++ boundary.

 It's seriously too late, unless someone else steps up and does 
 it. I'd
 need to change the build script to clean and build another 
 Windows
 target, and my time is bound to regression fixing.

 Been waiting for this for almost 2 years, might as well wait 
 for another release. Seriously tho, it is surprising how much 
 little attention is put into C++/D integration considering all 
 the recent fuss about this. And yes, I've tried mixed C++/D app 
 on x64 Win, it crashes with simple writeln() call.

bug report?

Posting about something on the forums won't get it fixed, make a 
bug report if you're encountering a bug.

i posted it on forums because i wasnt sure if it was indeed a bug 
or just me. also it is hard to provide minimal app when mixing 
code and under msvc as potentially full project is needed. i do 
get your point tho
