Hey all,

I am finally working on moving out of dmd territory and playing 
with gdc and ldc. I was hoping that I could get some links to 
some example command lines. I'm mainly interested command lines 
regarding linking to libraries and building static libraries.

My guess is that gdc will function essentially the same as gcc 
for these things, or at least close enough to where I can figure 
it out, but I have had no experience with ldc and I am having 
trouble tracking down documentation for it.

Thanks!

$ ldc2 | grep link
   -L=<linkerflag>                                 - Pass 
<linkerflag> to the linker
   -c                                              - Do not link
   -disable-linker-strip-dead                      - Do not try to 
remove unused symbols during linking
   -linkonce-templates                             - Use 
linkonce_odr linkage for template symbols instead of weak_odr
$ ldc2 | grep lib
   -debuglib=<lib1,lib2,...>                       - Default 
libraries for debug info build (overrides previous)

   -lib                                            - Create static 
library
   -shared                                         - Create shared 
library

it's all pretty self-explanatory if you're familiar with the gnu 
toolchain. Feel free to ask about any specifics.
