Note that -L passes flags (options) but not necessarily

Your comment is reasonable enough, but unfortunately the main
problem is there are examples on the internet using this "-L" for
this kind of thing.
If go here:
http://wiki.dlang.org/Compiling_and_linking_with_DMD_on_Windows#Static_Libraries_and_Import_Paths
There is an example in: "Passing search directories for static
library files to Optlink", which follows:
C:\Project\main.d
C:\Project\lib\mylib.lib
where main.d depends on the mylib library, you can compile
via:
dmd -L+.\lib\ driver.d mylib.lib
Yes there is a "+" plus sign and a "." dot there, but I believe
people gets confuse and uses it as "-I".
Clearly, the forward slash (/) is reserved for switches, so the
program will have trouble parsing paths with forward slashes.
About this in fact this was my mistake, because originally I had
tried "\" and since it wasn't working so I change to "/" and that
remains.
