I've found D on Windows to be very easy for myself and for my
end users... but not for intermediate developers.
For myself, I just set up the necessary .lib files in my dmd
lib folder and problem solved. I can do conversions or
generation as needed.
For the end users, I'll just do a binary distribution and
things just work for them.
But intermediate devs having to set up the environment can be a
pain... that's why my libs are set up in a particular way to
work with dmd out of the box and other stuff opt in..
Yes, but suppose you want to build a C library like Google
snappy, nanomsg or leveldb. It's a bit of a pain on Windows. No
worse with D than C++. But it looks awfully complicated coming
from C#.
