new MyClass.MyClass(), I suppose. Despite import is public, module symbol has higher priority in name resolution.

Nope. I changed module name to myClass_mod, now got this: Error: class myClass_mod.myClass() is used as a type

class myClass () { this() { } }; should be class myClass { this() { } }

Thanks, that killed the original error.

You need to put myClass_mod.d (or what ever the file name is) on the command line. You could also use rdmd, which will find all the imported files automatically.

BTW I just sent a pull request that makes rdmd faster for large projects by reducing the number of stat calls: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/tools/pull/41 Andrei

Yeah... Those empty parentheses were making myClass a class template, not a class. Apparently the syntax (or the compiler) allows template definitions without template parameters, which can still be instantiated: class myClass () { this() { } } int main() { myClass!() my_instance = new myClass!(); return 0; } Ali

module myClass (myclass.d); class myClass() { this() { ... } } and main app (main.d): import myclass; void main() { myClass my_instance = new myClass(); } then compile with: $ dmd main.d myclass.d or: $ dmd main myclass or: $ rdmd main ps. Module names should be lowercase (see docs), and you can safely use 'void' for main()

Whoops, forgot to remove the '()' after 'myClass'. As others have pointed out, that will make 'myClass' a template-class.
