You need to link with phobos.lib (because this is where writeln is defined and implemented).

And maybe use dmc instead of gcc if the compilation is done on Windows. Bye, bearophile

I think that's because you skipped some initialization for D. At the very least, a GC needs to be initialized first. Try calling gc_init() (defined in core.memory) and thread_attachThis() (core.thread) because invoking other D code. That should help.

It would, but then are you okay with memory leaks (i.e. writeln might allocate something)?
