(Linux) Which compilers should be working now with shared libraries?
Since GtkD offers the option to build shared libraries, I was wondering which of the 3 compilers (SDC excluded for now, sorry :)) can handle that at the moment. I think DMD does and GDC doesn't (at least the Wiki says so). What about LDC? -- Marco

Only DMD does shared right now.

Oops, this was answered with "not ready yet" a few topics earlier. Ok, then static D libs only for now. -- Marco

That reads like "all compilers can link against shared libraries, but none can actually load any into the process". That's probably not what you meant to say, right? At least "Hello world" with phobos.so seems to work with DMD. Or does loading D libraries through libdl in particular fail? -- Marco

As I just noted in another thread, the DMD 2.064 branch of LDC now uses the same module discovery/runtime startup scheme on Linux as DMD. So, thanks to Martin's awesome work, it is only a matter of working any remaining small issues out at this point. David

Is there an overview, what does and what does not work with shared libraries? I envision a matrix with one axis "dmd, gdc, ldc" and one axis "linking shared C library, loading/unloading shared C libraries, link shared D library into D, link shared D library into C, ..."

I envision a matrix with one axis "dmd, gdc, ldc" and one axis "linking shared C library, loading/unloading shared C libraries, link shared D library into D, link shared D library into C, ..." and then another axis for dmdfe/druntime release, and then another axis for platform, and then another axis for architecture and then this becomes maybe a bit much for a wiki system to handle. But I would like something like this too.
