Hi.

I'm working on compiling some projects using GDC as well as DMD. Right 
now I'm having trouble finding some equivalent command line arguments 
for GDC:

-L/IMPLIB:mydll.lib
This generates an import library for a DLL.

-L/SU:WINDOWS
This one removes the console window on Windows.

-H, -Hf and -Hd
Generate interface files.

-cov
Adds code to generate coverage information.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks.

Use the "gdmd" wrapper, and the -vdmd flag (that shows the gdc commands)

I don't think that'll work for the -'L' options though, as those should 
be passed to the linker and GDC uses a different one; I'm pretty sure 
gdmd doesn't translate them.
But ld (the linker GDC uses) is quite popular, so in those cases you 
should be able to find the correct options on the 'net.

-mwindows

-pg (maybe also -lgcov, depends on your system)

I don't know about the rest though.

This isn't how .dll's are done with GDC. No static import library is 
necessary, you can link a binary directly against the .dll, and the 
imports are generated on-the-fly.

Wouldn't it be great if all Windows compilers were this smart?


 
 -H, -Hf and -Hd

I'd recommend you just use gdmd, but otherwise:
-fintfc
-fintfc-dir=
-fintfc-file=

Wow. I didn't knew that. Great!.

Thank you and all of the responders. That's all that needed.
