Hello,
I have set up my enviroment according to these instructions:

When I compile a small tutorial program I get this error:
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol MessageBoxW referenced in
function WinMain

I have to manually specify "User32.Lib" to dmd when I want to compile my
program (or move User32.Lib to my project directory).

Is this normal?

Below is my sc.ini.

[Environment]
LIB="%DIR_WINSDK%\Lib\x64";"%DIR_MSVC%\lib\amd64";"%@P%\..\lib"
DFLAGS="-I%@P%\..\..\src\phobos" "-I%@P%\..\..\src\druntime\import" "-m64"
LINKCMD=%@P%\link.exe
LINKCMD64=%DIR_MSVC%\bin\amd64\link.exe

Obviously User32.Lib resides in "%DIR_WINSDK%\Lib\x64". This directory resolves correctly in windows explorer to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Lib\x64"

Yes. It is normal that you have to manually specify User32.lib when compiling. At least for x64. I recommend you use visualD which sets up a propper windows project for you.

Kind Regards

and i recommend to use dub, which then can generate projects for visuald or whatever.
