digitalmars.D.learn - Defult stack size on Windows?

Anyone know what DMD/OPTLINK's default stack size on windows is? Or how to 
find out?

Also, I don't suppose there's a way to give a linker flag to DMD that it'll 
simply ignore on non-Windows platforms, is there?

Dunno.

Last time I played with it you can't pass any linker flags via DMD cos 
of a bug. If you do it separately then you can use the /stack switch:

 Dunno.


Actually if you have visual studio installed you can use the dumpbin 
utility. the /headers switch prints out the initial stack size:

    100000 size of stack reserve
      1000 size of stack commit

Looks like dmd is defaulting to 4k. Obviously that doesn't apply to 
thread spawned at runtime; for windows the default is 4k again, though 
d-runtime might specify more or less.
