And if you don't want to do all of that manually, you could use http://repo.or.cz/w/girtod.git which would make a simple glib D hello-world program look like import glib = gtk2.glib2; import std.stdio, std.conv; void main() { auto tz = glib.TimeZone.new_local(); scope (exit) tz.unref(); auto dt = glib.DateTime.new_now(tz); scope (exit) dt.unref(); writeln("Hello World! It is " ~ to!string(dt.format("%c"))); } Compile with gdc -fdeprecated -O2 -I $PATH_TO_GIRTOD glibhello.d $PATH_TO_GIRTOD/gtk2/glib2.o `pkg-config --libs glib-2.0` This might only work with GDC right now; I have no idea about DMD - never tried it. There are other gtk bindings out there (eg gtkd) that may work with that compiler and probably support glib too. artur
