To be honest I was having some odd linking problems anyway. I
initially wrapped the FT init function in plain D function and
that kept causing "_FT_.... not found" link errors. As soon as
I took all the actual D functions out and left just FT
declarations in there it stopped. Even now if I add...
int foo() { return 0; }
to my freetype.d (contains just FT interface declarations)
and call it from font.d (my font class)
i start getting linker errors. Why would adding a plain D
function suddenly make it sound the linker cant find what it
needs in the freetype.lib?
The only thing I can think of offhand: did you compile and link
your freetype.d? As long as it's just interface declarations,
there's no need to -- it only needs to be on the import path. But
once you start adding implementations, it needs to be compiled
and linked into the executable.
