Hello

i try to call a function from an assembly program.

## This  file is  a basic  demonstration of  the  GNU assembler,
## `as'.
## dmd -c print.d
## gcc -s -c d_function.s
## gcc  -nostdlib  c_function.o print.o  -lgcc -o d_function
#######################################################################

        .section .data
        .section .text
        .globl _start

  _start:
        ## Call the function
        call prin

        ## terminate program via _exit () system call
        xorl %eax, %eax     # %eax = 0
        incl %eax       # %eax = 1 system call _exit ()
        xorl %ebx, %ebx     # %ebx = 0 normal program return code
        int $0x80       # execute system call _exit ()

The D programm

void prin() {
        /* printf("Hallo"); */
        int i = 3;
}

Compile with:
dmd -c print.c
gcc -s -c d_function.s
gcc  -nostdlib  d_function.o print.o  -lgcc -o d_function
c_function.o(.text+0x1): In function `_start':
: undefined reference to `prin'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Maybe someone have an idea, or a better example.

My only suggestion is add "extern (C)"

extern (C)
void prin() {
        /* printf("Hallo"); */
        int i = 3;
}
