digitalmars.D.learn - linking custom modules (dmd)

Hello,

I haven't found the way to have custom modules linked by dmd like stdlib on=
es. For instance, if program P imports modules M and std.string, I need to =
manually write a build command like:
	$ dmd -w -ofP P.d M.d
What have I missed?

Nothing. DMD automatically links with Phobos.lib when you compile your 
app. But it does not automatically compile and link any non-Phobos 
modules you import unless you explicitly pass them on the command line, 
as you have done. There's a tool that ships with dmd, called rdmd, that 
will do what you want if you use it in place of dmd.

Well, not really automatic, the dmd.conf/sc.ini file is read by dmd, and can be
edited for other libraries/files/commands.

Thank you all, now I understand. I will not modify dmd.conf, as imported mo=
dules change for every app. But try rdmd when I have for that.

Add stuff to this file if you want dmd to automatically link your libs.
