Hello!

I've reproduced steps 1-9 on my Ubuntu 14.04 x64 machine, but now I have this errors:

root@dlang:~/phpext# dmd -shared speedup_wrap.o dfakemain.o speedup.o -ofspeedup.so /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphobos2.a(lifetime_485_6c8.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `_D15TypeInfo_Shared7__ClassZ' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphobos2.a: error adding symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1


I'm new to D/C languages, so what can I do to fix this error? I tried to compile with "-fPIC" option at all appropriate steps, but nothing helps :(

I think Rémy's advice is a little outdated when dealing with shared libraries, which are now supported on linux, so the fake main is not necessary there anymore:

http://dlang.org/dll-linux.html#dso7

Try linking to phobos as a shared library as shown there and then calling the D function, I believe it should work (you'll also need to call rt_init() before the D library and rt_term() after).

Thank you very much for advice, it helped me :) Here is my build.sh file after all experiments:

#!/bin/sh
swig -php speedup.i
dmd -m64 -fPIC -c -L-shared speedup.d
sed -i "1i char* d_speedUp(char* arg1);" speedup_wrap.c
gcc `php-config --includes` -fpic -c speedup_wrap.c
dmd -m64 -shared -defaultlib=libphobos2.so -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu speedup_wrap.o speedup.o -ofspeedup.so

Note that we need to insert d_speedUp() function definition in speedup_wrap.c file, otherwise there will be a warning "cast to pointer" and segmentation fault when using compiled speedup.so file:
speedup_wrap.c: In function ‘_wrap_d_speedUp’:
speedup_wrap.c:1141:12: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]

Also I found no mention about rt_term() method in generated files, so my php script works without it.
   result = (char *)d_speedUp(arg1);
