Building DMD
I am trying to build DMD 64-bit. I was able to build everything after getting the paths fixed for zlib, druntime, and phobos. Everything seems to compile. I replaced all the files generated in to the dmd directories of the old ones. (phobos64.lib, gcstub.obj, dmd.exe) But anytime I build my projects that worked fine in the x86 compiler I get the errors: Error 42: Symbol Undefined __d_arrayboundsp Error 42: Symbol Undefined __d_assertp These seem like dmd runtime functions or something similar but not sure why they don't exist. Any ideas? Are these functions suppose to be in phobos or druntime? and why aren't they showing up when I build from sources and replaced everything, I believe, correctly?

Those are runtime functions. Did you build druntime64.lib? If so is it up to date? The compiler and runtime are required to by in sync. Alternately compiling with `-release -boundscheck=off` should remove reliance on those functions (this is not a proper solution).

More information, please. What was the code you were trying to compile? What compile flags did you use? Which compiler? T I see this on OSX as well. Any code referencing Phobos appears to produce this. It appear after updating the XCode command line tools. It does not appear to effect program execution, but the pages of warnings are really quite annoying. DMD 2.073.2 -- Adam Wilson IRC: LightBender import quiet.dlang.dev;

The 64-bit make files have issues because paths are hard coded and things are not so simple as they used to be, but I was able to, I think, get everything to work. So, if this is a druntime issue, and if built it "correctly" is there any settings I would have to change to add them or anything like that? Any way to check if those symbols exist in druntime64.lib? It seems the methods are in src\core\exception.d so not sure why they wouldn't be added. But yes, I downloaded everything nearly simultaneously and build them.

Download the source of a release version. ~master is always a little unstable. picking the ~stable branch for phobos druntime and dmd should end up in a working compiler close to the latest release.

What I've always found to be the hardest is to know what you can do, and that's what I use books for. "Can" in the sense of what's possible and how. These forums and the docs on the site have given me a pretty decent idea about how to proceed and do things. It's not the work itself that I dread, but more the "can I find out how to do something", but some of your answers touched on this and I will take heed. A lot to learn. You can expect me to come pester you guys if I hit a snag. Heh. plus IRC chat if you get stuck. All great tips above! I have some rather simple examples here: https://github.com/jasc2v8/dwt-support I had created a vhd copy program in AutoIt, and set a goal to convert to D. The result is a much better utility, as well as learning the D language from the very basics to a useful gui app.

So, I downloaded all stables an rebuilt and replaced and same error ;/(dmd, druntime, and phobos) The error seems to be in something else: 1. I had to use fix up the paths to get win64.mak to compile because the paths are hard coded for old visual studio/clang/sdk's that simply do not translate in to the newer visual studio revamps. (wish it did, because it's a pain to find all the right files). 2. druntime64.lib has _d_arrayboundsp and _d_assertp in it(doing a text search). Any ideas? I'm at a loss. So close but so far!
Re: Building DMD
So, I rebuilt everything again from scratch, I fixed up the make files and such and everything went smooth. I was able to not have the errors. I think what I did first was I built dmdx64 then copied it to the bin dir and tried to use it but got the phobos errors. I then tried to build druntime/phobos and it was trying to use that version of the dmd, which I guess was faulty because phobos\druntime wasn't correct. Instead, I simply built everything first then copied everything together and that seemed to work. It would be real nice if we could have the x64 version added to the distro so people don't have to rebuild each time. Also, the make files needs to be updated to support the latest VS. It's nice that the build process went pretty smooth otherwise though. Seems to work but now I run in to two problems: If I try to compile for win32 I get Error: more than 32767 symbols in object file if I try to compile for x64 I get fatal error LNK1179: invalid or corrupt file: duplicate COMDAT '_D6modu2557__T19fooVAyaa13_6d50686f746f73686f70434f4dVAAyaA82a11_4170706c69636174696f6ea8_446f63756d656e74a8_4172744c61796572a8_546578744974656da10_536f6c6964436f6c6f72a8_524742436f6c6f72a9_47726179436f6c6f72a9_434d594b436f6c6f72a8_4c6162436f6c6f72a8_485342436f6c6f72a8_4c61796572536574a6_4c6179657273a9_4c6179657253657473a9_4172744c6179657273a12_486973746f72795374617465a12_446f63756d656e74496e666fa9_53656c656374696f6ea7_4368616e6e656ca11_584d504d65746164617461a16_4d6561737572656d656e745363616c65a8_4368616e6e656c73a13_486973746f7279537461746573a10_4c61796572436f6d7073a9_4c61796572436f6d70a9_506174684974656d73a8_506174684974656da12_537562506174684974656d73a11_537562506174684974656da10_50617468506f696e7473a9_50617468506f696e74a10_436f756e744974656d73a9_436f756e744974656da13_436f6c6f7253616d706c657273a12_436f6c6f7253616d706c6572a11_507265666572656e636573a9_446f63756d656e7473a9_54657874466f6e7473a8_54657874466f6e74a9_4e6f74696669657273a8_4e6f746966696572a14_4d6561737572656d656e74! 4c6f67a16_416374696f6e44657363726970746f72a10_416374696f6e4c697374a15_416374696f6e5265666572656e6365a18_50686f746f43444f70656e4f7074696f6e73a20_526177466f726d61744f70656e4f7074696f6e73a14_5044464f70656e4f7074696f6e73a14_4550534f70656e4f7074696f6e73a16_4449434f4d4f70656e4f7074696f6e73a20_43616d6572615241574f70656e4f7074696f6e73a20_50686f746f73686f70536176654f7074696f6e73a14_424d50536176654f7074696f6e73a14_474946536176654f7074696f6e73a14_455053536176654f7074696f6e73a15_4a504547536176654f7074696f6e73a14_504446536176654f7074696f6e73a19_5049435446696c65536176654f7074696f6e73a16_5069786172536176654f7074696f6e73a14_504e47536176654f7074696f6e73a14_526177536176654f7074696f6e73a17_534749524742536176654f7074696f6e73a16_5461726761536176654f7074696f6e73a15_5469536176654f7074696f6e73a16_444353315f536176654f7074696f6e73a16_444353325f536176654f7074696f6e73a24_4578706f72744f7074696f6e73496c6c7573747261746f72a23_4578706f72744f7074696f6e7353617665466f72576562a23_4269746d6170436f6e76657273! 696f6e4f7074696f6e73a24_496e6465786564436f6e76657273696f6e4f7074696f6e73a7_4e6f436f6c6f72a19_50726573656e746174696f6e4f7074696f6e73a14_47616c6c6572794f7074696f6e73a20_47616c6c65727942616e6e65724f7074696f6e73a20_47616c6c657279496d616765734f7074696f6e73a23_47616c6c6572795468756d626e61696c4f7074696f6e73a25_47616c6c657279437573746f6d436f6c6f724f7074696f6e73a22_47616c6c65727953656375726974794f7074696f6e73a19_436f6e7461637453686565744f7074696f6e73a21_506963747572655061636b6167654f7074696f6e73a12_42617463684f7074696f6e73a11_53756250617468496e666fa13_50617468506f696e74496e666fZ19.

Seems that the function was being defined several times due to ctfe or whatever and that caused problems.
