D2 is Great, I've got D based numeric array DLLs extending Python Numpy..
My Question is:
  What is the D2 language's equivalent for __declspec(dllexport)..
Can one export variables as well as functions from a DLL's symbol table, while programing in D2 with dmd?

Afaik it is simply the 'export' storage class.

I'd suspect yes, but I don't work on windows.

The 'export' storage class is what you are looking for. It works as public and__declspec(dllexport) on Windows and just public on all others.

Export works on classes/structs/functions/properties/variables. Basically anything that can be exported by a DLL can be marked 'export'.
