dfl_debug.lib not found

I'm trying to compile my first application using Forms in D, using the DFL / Tango libraries, but the compiler first attempt said: DFL lib files not found.

Then I tried to compile the libs, and got the following error:

not found: \dmd\import\import\*.obj 
dfl_debug.lib not found

I'm using the DMD compiler, version v2.055.

How I fix it?

Solution

  • What I do is download the latest snapshot archive, extract this into where dmd is installed. Then get the latest source from github/Rayerd and copy the win32/dfl directory over the dfl directory from the archive. And finally I use the dfl.exe executable to compile my program.

    Rayerd hasn't been keeping up, so check out pull requests and possible other repos to get a working build.
