What is causing this: Is this a compile or a linker error?
this is the real output of the error:

is the cast necessary?
I tried without the cast and it throws me a compile error, so I
made the cast.
you want toStringz(pipename) or if you know pipename is a null
terminated string pipename.ptr
Thanks for your advice, I'm very noob with D so I downloaded the
new book that came out that can be free. It's supposed that the
name will come in the arguments (I've not written that yet, I did
just put some basic string "pipechanneltest" <-string literal.
pragma(lib ,"advapi32");
it may also require the appropriate file suffix (.dll or .lib)
Yes, I wrote it with comma, it was just a typo error.
advapi32.lib I found it in my DMD installation folder
(dmd2/windows/lib) (62.5K), same as kernel32.lib (106K).
Can I use .lib files from my Windows SDK? it's heavier (189K).
I wrote after the pragma(lib ,"kernel32"); the following line:
pragma(lib, "advapi32.lib");
I tried without file suffix and with .dll suffix and it failed in
all cases.
MAN! what the heck? I changed the build from x86 to x64 and
there's no more errors. Even without the new pragma line. Either
way I would prefer x64 over x86.
