For example, i have test.cpp:

And test.d:
import std.stdio;
extern (C++) void test();
void main()
{
     test();
     readln();
}
How i should compile test.cpp using g++ to link it normally?

* Under linux:
   - create the object
     g++ -c test.cpp
   - link:
     dmd test.d test.o

* Under windows 32 bit:
  - create the object:
     Use digital mars C/C++ (dmc) to create an OMF object (GCC 
would produce COFF) then
  - link:
     dmd test.d test.obj

Note that in both cases it can be better not to use the same name 
for the cpp object.
With more C++ objects you could create an archive (aka static 
library) but for just one source this is useless.

So, is there any way to use gcc/g++ under windows?

DMD can work with COFF objects when given -m32mscoff when 
compiling 32-bit and -m64 for 64-bit. In both cases, yoi will 
need the Microsoft linker and SDK intalled. However, when linking 
with GCC-compiled objects from MinGW or Cygwin, any use of the C 
standard library in those objects is bound to cause linker 
errors. With C++, there's also the issue of name mangling. I 
don't know if GCC's and Microsoft's are compatible.
