So I was attempting to get the prebuilt binaries up and running 
for MSVC but ran into some trouble.

I did the following:

Installed LLVM from ClangOnWin version 3.7 something.

Downloaded ldc2-0.15.1-win64-msvc.zip Extracted contents to a 
folder on the c:\ drive added the bin folder to the path Tried to 
compile Helloworld.d with "ldc2 Helloworld.d"

Got "missing dll" error so

Installed MS C++ 2013 redistributable. Tried to compile 
Helloworld.d with "ldc2 Helloworld.d"

Noticed that it was "*d.dll" that was missing meaning debug

Installed MS Visual studio express 2013 Tried to compile 
Helloworld.d with "ldc2 Helloworld.d"

Got "cannot find link.exe"

Added "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin" to 
the path

Got "LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 
'kernel32.lib'"

and now I have no idea what to do next? If there is a guide to 
get setup that would be nice to link here :)

So I found that this may be has to do with not having the Windows 
sdk installed.

I installed the windows sdk and added the C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Lib\ to the path ( it contains 
kernel32.lib )

I still get LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 
'kernel32.lib'

So then i open Ldc2.conf and added the line:

"-L-L/Program Files (x86)/Windows Kits/8.1/Lib/winv6.3/um/x64" 
Tried to compile Helloworld.d with "ldc2 Helloworld.d"

Got Cannot open LIBCMT.lib

Then i added

"-L-L/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 
11.0/VC/lib/amd64"

Got a whole mess (37) of missing symbols from the math.obj

Hi Taylor!

I don't have the Express version so I can't give advice in this 
case.

In general, if you are able to compile a C++ hello world 
application with cl on the command line then you should be able 
to do the same with ldc.

ldc on Win64 is still bleeding edge - there are no install 
instructions yet.

Regards,
Kai

I don't have even that, lol. I guess, you can just run C:\Program 
Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 
12.0\VC\bin\amd64\vcvars64.bat - do you have the file? Or maybe 
your OS is 32-bit?

In VS2012 the native tools command prompt link reads
%comspec% /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 
11.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"" amd64

 Then i added

 "-L-L/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 
 11.0/VC/lib/amd64"

That's not VC2013 folder.

No, I Dont have A VS folder like that under my non-x86 files. 
Also I am running windows 8, which isn't fun. The Reason I added 
the 11.0 version was due to my 12.0 not containing the 
LIBCMTD.lib. I figure since the Compiler wanted a Kernel32.lib 
and a LIBCMTD.lib the Linker should probably be given a 
combination the following directories.

C:\Program Files (x86)>dir LIBCMTD.lib /b/s

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 
10.0\VC\lib\libcmtd.lib

however!

so don't get confused!

add LDC\Bin to the path
