The recls samples (both recls_test_1.d and recls_test_2.d) compile but don't
link, neither in Windows nor Linux (with dmd 0.79, win xp, mandrake 9).

I've not tested them since 0.78.

Can you give more information

That sounds like a problem I had.

I haven't looked at recls_test_1 and _2, but I suspect you need to create recls.lib using a command line like this (Windows version)...

cd \DMD\SRC\PHOBOS\ETC\C\RECLS
make -fwin32.mak

Then put recls.lib in the a lib path (probably either \dm\lib or \dmd\lib) and include it when you compile your file.

I've attached a sample file I've used to test recls.

(By the way, it seems to me like this should be documented somewhere, but I couldn't find it at the recls website: http://recls.org/.)

Good luck.

I think you're right.

But the contents of recls.lib should be in phobos.lib. I'm confused

Walter, did something happen to remove them in the latest build?

In the meantime, chaps (and chappettes), we'll have to figure out a way to
workaround it.

Give me a few mins to check it out.

I've just checked in win32.mak in the phobos root dir. The offending lines are:

    phobos.lib : $(OBJS) minit.obj internal\gc\dmgc.lib etc\c\zlib\zlib.lib
\
     win32.mak etc\c\recls\recls.lib
     lib -c phobos.lib $(OBJS) minit.obj internal\gc\dmgc.lib
etc\c\zlib\zlib.lib

It looks as though big-W hasn't put "etc\c\recls\recls.lib" on the command-line, as well as on the dependency line.

Still, it's not all his fault, as I clearly have not checked that recls worked as part of Phobos.

Blushes all round, I guess.

Walter, what's the best next step? When's the new release due?

In the meantime, JC's advice is the right one, i.e. you'll need to build the recls.lib and use that. It shouldn't present a problem, beyond being a PITA. Sorry.

Cheers

Matthew
