this is all the code I have, and I get an object.Error (0):

I have looked all over the internet and I am unable to find a fix

Any ideas on how to fix this or what is the cause?

When you activate an OpenGL context you reload it. You do not do this 
when one is not activated.

 When you activate an OpenGL context you reload it. You do not 
 do this when one is not activated.

import derelict.opengl3.gl3;
import derelict.glfw3.glfw3;

import buffer, shader;

pragma(lib, "DerelictGLFW3");
pragma(lib, "DerelictGL3");
pragma(lib, "DerelictUtil");
pragma(lib, "dl");

int main()
{
	DerelictGL3.load();
	DerelictGLFW3.load();
     GLFWwindow* window;


     if (!glfwInit())
         return -1;


     window = glfwCreateWindow(640, 480, "Hello World", null, 
null);
     if (!window)
     {
         glfwTerminate();
         return -1;
     }

     /* Make the window's context current */
     glfwMakeContextCurrent(window);
	DerelictGL3.reload();


     while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window))
     {



         glfwSwapBuffers(window);


         glfwPollEvents();
     }

     glfwTerminate();
     return 0;
}

Ah ok!
so here's my updated code. I still get the object error. I am 
trying to get a  blank window to appear. I call the reload after 
I set the glfwcontext. I'm not sure what I'm missing here.

There's nothing obvious that jumps out. You really should not 
have been seeing an access violation with the first bit of code 
you posted if the problem were simply that no context were 
loaded. I suggest you try again with just a simple call to 
DerelictGL3.load and see if you still get the error. If so, see 
if you can run a hello world.

I managed to get it working. I couldn't do a writeln command 
because I was getting that same error. I created a new project 
and that fixed the problem. :) thanks for the help!

Doing so shouldn't cause an access violation, though. It would be 
throwing a DerelictException saying that no context has been 
loaded yet.

I meant to say, failure to do so.

the Error (0) is almost always a null pointer dereference. Why 
that would be occurring for just attempting to load the libs i'm 
not sure.
