Whether you want to link with the static library or link with the shared library, you need to with something when compiling your app. All of the bindings in Deimos are like this -- they are /static/ bindings. The Derelict binding has no link-time dependency. You can build your app without having the development version of GLFW on your system.

Is this your beginings with GLFW/OpengGL in D? If yes that I strongly sugest going with dub and Derelict. It all just works without any hustle.

On Windows, when compiling as 32-bit, the compiler makes use of the OPTLINK linker that ships with it. OPTLINK only supports OMF. So you can compile a C library with dmc (which also uses OPTLINK) or you can take a library in COFF format and run it through an object converter (like coff2omf or Agner Fog's Object Converter[1]) to convert it to OMF. When compiling with DMD as 64-bit, the compiler makes use of the Visual Studio toolchain, so you can use 64-bit COFF libraries out of the box after you install the VS tools. If you are linking with the import library instead of a static library, the same idea applies. But in that case you can run a tool like coffimplib on the DLL to create an import library in OMF format, then link with it. Both coff2omf and coffimplib are available, along with other useful utilities, as part of the Digital Mars Extended Utility Package [2] which is available for sale at [3]. This problem does not exist on Linux or Mac as DMD uses the GCC backend for those platforms.

Sorry, I'm very new to D.
Anyways, would
deimos/glfw/glfw3.d
be needed if I have
import glfw.glfw3;
in my main.d ?
