Hi, I was wondering what the correct way to import a DLL is when 
building with LDC. I tried implib, but I got a "invalid or 
corrupt file" error when the linker got to the lib file.

For ldc, it'll need ab MSVC import library in order to link 
correctly. Implib is for making a Digital Mars styled import 
library.

Also, implib is for 32 bit dll's and I think ldc only targets 64 
bit builds on Windows.
