Hello!

I've been test programming win32 applications recently, and since the 
phobos win32 library is so limited, I decided to download and test the 
WindowsAPI Binding 
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/bindings/wiki/WindowsApi). Using the 
latest snapshot (as of this writing) I receive the following linker 
errors when I compile:

Error 42: Symbol Undefined _D5win328winerror12MAKE_HRESULTFbkkZi
(MAKE_HRESULT is undefined).

These are my imports: win32.mmsystem, win32.windef, win32.winuser, 
win32.wingdi and win32.directx.d3d9.

The problem lies within the DirectX module. If I do not import it, there 
are no errors. I've taken the d3d9.lib and d3dx9.lib from the DirectX 
SDK and used coffimplib and the linked to them, without success.

These are the libraries I am linking to: gdi32.lib, winmm.lib and d3d9.lib.

Any theories why MAKE_HRESULT is undefined? Have I forgotten to link to 
something?

You could maybe try Derelict: http://www.dsource.org/projects/derelict

Sorry, I thought Derelict did DirectX. Looking at it now, I guess maybe it 
doesn't.

Linking to win32 libs won't help you here. MAKE_HRESULT is a macro on 
the C-side, so no symbol exists for it in any of the win32 libs. On the 
D side, you can find it declared as a function in the bindings in 
winerror.d. In d3d9.d, it is called from the function MAKE_D3DHRESULT. 
So you need to make sure that winerror.d is compiled and linked into 
your executable.
