I wanted to create a simple application to display and edit data 
from  postgresql database using GtkD and ddb 
(https://github.com/pszturmaj/ddb)

The application should run on WinXp or Win7. After a week of work 
I throw in the towel ...

1. The first problem
$ dub build
     Unexpected Termination OPTLINK at t = EIP 0040F5Ba
After many attempts to find a solution 
(http://forum.dlang.org/thread/gskuwiynupngpungybic forum.dlang.org)

$ dub build --rdmd

After writing a bit of code another problem:

$ dub build --rdmd
   Error 45: Too Much Data for Old DEBUG CodeView format

$ dub --build=release --rdmd
C:\Documents and Settings\dao\Application 
Data\dub\packages\gtk-d-2.3.3\src\gtk\Builder.d(489): Error: ICE: 
cannot append 'char' to 'string'

(see https://github.com/gtkd-developers/GtkD/issues/91 and 
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12243)

I love D but, with tail between legs, I come back to csharp...

(BTW on Linux it's works well)

That's why I think D needs its own GUI like Java Swing. You could
however try PyD and use a Python UI (i.e. have D do the work and
use a Python UI) or you try a solution with, say, Lua. Or
anything that is based on C like Tk and IUP, if you don't mind
writing the interfaces yourself. Cf.
