digitalmars.D - std.gc.setHandle causes Access Violation

Using a shared DLL and a client Executable, both written in D, I'd like 
to be able to use std.gc.setGCHandle, as mentioned in the Win32 DLL 
example. However, I am getting an Access Violation Error, right when the 
call to std.gc.setHandle is made.

Does anyone know about this problem, and how to solve it?

This is the code setting the GC handler on the DLL side:

extern(C) export void libraryInit(void * gc) {
	MessageBoxA(null, "Library Initializing", "Library", MB_OK);
	std.gc.setGCHandle(gc);
	_minit();
	_moduleCtor();
}

This is the code, on the Executable side:

alias void function(void * gc) LibraryInitFP;

...

fp = GetProcAddress(mod.h, "libraryInit");
if(fp != null) {
     mod.libraryInitFP = cast(LibraryInitFP)(fp);
}

if(mod.libraryInitFP != null) {
     (*mod.libraryInitFP)(std.gc.getGCHandle());
}

I'm doing this in some code:

extern (C)
export void initialize(void* gc)
{
	std.gc.setGCHandle(gc);
	_minit();
	_moduleCtor();
	_moduleUnitTests();
}

And then to load it:

alias void function(void*) initialize_fp;
initialize_fp init_f;

init_f = GetLibraryFunction!(initialize_fp)(module, "initialize");

init_f(std.gc.getGCHandle());

And I haven't had any problems.  That said, I haven't yet updated to the 
latest latest DMD version.

As far as I know, my implementation isn't much different. The init 
method is properly called, there is a value passed to it. But I still 
get the same problem.

I'd try using windbg on it.

It's a linkage problem, probably a corrupted stack. Using ordinary D linkage (together with the mangled names) works fine. Seems that I've got to dive into std.demangle... Regards, Sjoerd
