I don't use dub because I don't have time to understand its foibles well enough to steer new D coders through the maze. Besides that, using tools like dub separates one from the process. Up to you, though, of course. That's understandable. Anyway, once I get back to learning GtkD I'll be starting with your blog.

Thank you! Your solution I guess is for dub.json. For those using dub.sdl the necessary line is: lflags "/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS" "/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup" platform="windows"

GtkD on Windows: notes + question
I found a much easier way to get GtkD working on windows than that described in https://gtkdcoding.com/2019/01/11/-introduction-to-gtkDcoding.html 1. I downloaded and installed the Gtk3 runtime (the link is on https://gtkdcoding.com/2019/01/11/-introduction-to-gtkDcoding.html) 2. I downloaded and unzipped the GtkD3 zip to C:\bin\GtkD3 3. Since I'd already installed LDC I just had to run: dub add-path C:\bin\GtkD3 Now I'm able to build and run on windows using dub. And again, I get static builds so have deployable .exes. However, when I double-click a GtkD .exe it pops up a console window, then the GUI window, and the console window stays until I close the GUI. Is there a way to avoid the console Window, at least for release builds?
