I am trying to compile an executible using DFL from the samples/ directory, and when I do, it prints this:

C:\DOCUME~1\OWNER\DESKTOP\D>c:\dmd\bin\dfl -gui client.d
c:\dmd\bin\dmd.exe client.d -Ic:\dmd\src\phobos -L/exet:nt/su:windows:4.0 c:\dmd
\lib\dfl.lib
c:\dmd\bin\..\..\dm\bin\link.exe client,,,c:\dmd\lib\dfl.lib+user32+kernel32/noi
/exet:nt/su:windows:4.0;
OPTLINK (R) for Win32  Release 7.50B1
Copyright (C) Digital Mars 1989 - 2001  All Rights Reserved

client.obj(client)
Error 42: Symbol Undefined _D3dfl5event10__T5EventZ5Event11opCatAssignFDFC6Obje
ctC3dfl5event9EventArgsZvZv
--- errorlevel 1

Returned status code 1



and when I execute the client.exe, it says "client.exe is not a valid Win32 Application"


any suggestions on how to solve this?

Either recompile DFL to generate a dfl.lib compatible with your version of DMD, or get the dfl*.zip version associated with your DMD version. If you have the current DMD 0.141 it is recommended you get the current DFL snapshot 20051204 from http://wiki.dprogramming.com/Dfl/Snapshots

Although it's not official, DFL 0.9 compiles with DMD up to 0.138...
