 A compiled DWT app as .exe is about 7 MB and using JFace 14 MB.
 


 Whoa. Poseidon uses DWT and it's a *little* bit smaller.


Yes, indeed. I wonder if UPX was used.
What is the difference? Is it just that the old DWT uses less modules?

Does it use old DWT? And what are you writing I wonder? A photoshop?

Poseidon uses the SWT port from Shawn.

I am talking about a simple test apps. The structure of SWT make every 
app to pull in a big part of the SWT lib.

I use dsss to build a simple jface program (just one module), it takes more
than 800 obj files (modules), the executable size is 15 MB. ( dwt-win svn,
dwt-addons svn). 

Does all 800 modules must compile in the simple jface program ? 

btw, seems impossible to build a jface program by dmd directly.

You will need a response file to pass the arguements to DMD. The windows 
comand line is restricted to 8192 characters. The build tools like 
DSSS/bud should do this by default.

Also, if you opt to not to link in the DWT library, and use the DWT sources
directly, rebuild/bud should mange the .obj dependencies for you.  That should
result in a smaller executable size, at the cost of a longer compile.

I link in the dwt.lib and dwtx.lib (added to sc.ini), to build
ApplicationWindow based jface program by dmd directly:
dmd test.d -L/SUBSYSTEM:windows:5

test.exe cause unhandled runtime exception:
tango.core.Exception.IllegalElementException: Attempt to include invalid key
_in Collection
