Hello,
I'm totally new using D. I'm trying to create a thread using
this code:
```d
…
extern (Windows)
int WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
…
```
I'm testing this program using Visual Studio Code. I
systematically have an exception (not trapped, I don't know why
by the catch) when it's calling thread.start(). I can see it
only with the debugger.
The exception is:
W32/0xC0000005
Unhandled exception at 0x00007FFB5F379463 (ntdll.dll) in
threads-debug.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing
location 0x0000000000000024.
Is it a mistake or a bug ?
By using WinMain, You are bypassing the runtime startup.
