Hi,I read on this website that it is possible to create shared libraries on linux using dmd. Is that correct? I am trying to compile the following code: module testPlugin; import std.stdio; export class testPlugin { export void testMethod() { writeln("This is method from plugin"); } } using the command dmd -fPIC testPlugin.d -oflibtestplugin.so -L-shared The system gives me the error //usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a(elf-init.oS): relocation R_386_GOTOFF against undefined hidden symbol `__init_array_end' can not be used when making a shared object /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value I tried to compile the file first with -c and then create a shared object but again it gives the same message. Can you please let me know if i am doing something wrong here or is it even possible to create a linux shared library using dmd. Regards Mandeep
You cannot currently do that with dmd on linux. The runtime doesn't have support for it and the are one or several PIC bugs that have to be fixed first. Issues 3226 and 4583 for example.
