With the default OPTLINK linker:

dmd -L/SUBSYSTEM:windows app.d

In this case, user32.lib where MessageBoxW and MessageBoxA reside is automatically linked.

When using the MS linker:

dmd -m64 -L/SUBSYSTEM:windows -L/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup app.d user32.lib

In this case, user32.lib is not automatically linked. Replace -m64 with -m32mscoff for 32-bit output with the MS linker.

-L passes command line options to the current linker.

Thanks for the reply. I think its better to write a program in which we can choose this codes from a combobox and click a button to start compiling.
