hi ,

When compiling gtkd using dub, dmd32 reported "Out for memory" 
and exit.

OS: Windows 7 32bit.
RAM : 3GB
DMD version: v2.0.82.0 32bit.

No VC or Windows SDK installed, when setting up dmd, I selected 
install vc2010 and use mingw lib.

try `dub --build-mode=singleFile` ? I believe this will compile 
each file and then link them together (instead of compiling it 
all together what dub does, afaik).
There's been another topic on memory consumption of compilation 
[1].

thanks timoses ,

singleFile mode works for building, but when linking, I got this:

I think that DMD should give up it's DMC linkers, using MinGW ld 
instead. DMC linker is not even a working linker.

You will also have to pass `--build=plain` to dub because of a optlink bug.

I tried using `--build-plain`, optlink didn't report out of 
memory, but it hangs !

-c=windows --build-mode=singleFile --build=plain --force`

Thanks !
