If I compile my D code using LDC into static file and used by 
my iOS app and since they have the same compiler backend, are 
they binary compatible?


If it is binary compatible, should I still build some C header 
file so it can be called by iOS?


XCode's compiler seems to keep evolving into their next stage, 
so I'm not sure if I'm conceptually correct.

You should ask in the ldc forum, as you're more likely to get an 
answer there.


As far as I know, ldc's support for iOS is still in the early 
stages but they should be binary compatible, particularly if you 
compile ldc against the same llvm backend, and a C wrapper is 
likely still necessary, as I don't think Dan Olson got it working 
without one:

Sorry, rereading his post now, he did get it working without a C 
wrapper, _I_ needed a C wrapper for Android.
