Hi!

As usual, I have everything not as it should :)

I have built dwt.After that I have created MS VS solution,in 
which I have configured paths.And when I was trying to build 
helloworld,I received messagebox
with this stuff:Unexpected OPTLINK Termination at EIP = 00428DA3

Tell me please,what should I do to fix it?

What you usually can do is try to pass the files in a different order to 
the compiler/linker. Also try different flags. I'm not very familiar 
with the Windows platform, try posting a the learn or main D newsgroup. 
If that fails there's an alternative linker, called "ulink" or similar, 
that you could try.

If you're comfortable building dmd, the latest git head has a fix 
for a similar issue and is worth a try.

Thank you)
Maybe I will try it,although I do not know how.

1. Create a new folder, "dlang"
2. In the dlang folder clone DMD, druntime and Phobos using this command 
"git clone <address>" where "<address>" is one of the git addresses below
3. Install DVM
4. From dlang run "dvm compile ."
5. You will have a compiled binary in dlang\dmd\bin32\dmd

DMD: git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git
druntime: git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime.git
Phobos: git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git
DVM: https://bitbucket.org/doob/dvm/wiki/Home

I'd build dwt and snippets successfully under Win7-64, dmd2.060 
like several weeks ago,
I mostly followed procedure by 
https://github.com/d-widget-toolkit/dwt.
I could not recall any specific actions in addition.

Thanks,

I also built dwt,but I can't build any program with it,becouse 
linker says:

test.obj(test)  Offset 000E5H Record Type 0088
  Error 118: Filename Expected

There is no magic, sorry, but something changed. Analyze it!
It may help all of us in the future.

I saw that the last error caused by

pragma(lib,"../dwt/lib/dwt-base.lib");

But path is valid

And the first error(Unexpected OPTLINK Termination) appeared when

Optlink can be very fragile sometime with these details, it's a known 
problem. There's already an alpha available of DMD that uses the 
Microsoft linker.

Jacob, it is 64-bit only, not sure DWT is ready for 64.

Right, good point, it's not. More reason to make it ready for 64bit, any 
help is welcome :) .

It's probably Unilink: ftp://ftp.styx.cabel.net/pub/UniLink/
I didn't have a chance use it.

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=6144

An astoundingly annoying bug, but I've never found any 
alternative besides randomly changing things and hoping that 
Optlink accepts it. It's probably the most annoying bug I've ever 
found while using DMD simply because there's no easy workaround 
and it only seems to manifest itself in large applications. 
Luckily, not an issue on Linux or with GDC.

Yeah, it's only DMD on Windows that suffers this problem.
