Tried to use DMD compiler that I built from source by following these instructions https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_under_Windows

They are outdated but I managed to compile it but I get this error when I tried to compile some code.

dmdm -run Main.d
C:\D\dmd2\windows\32\..\..\src\druntime\import\core\sys\windows\winbase.d(1828): Error:
object.Error@(0): Access Violation
----------------
0x0064FED6
0x006502BE
0x006499CF
0x006488ED



dmdm is just alias dmdm=C:\D\dmd2\windows\32\dmd.exe $*

the compiler version is dmd-2.078.0

Could some one help fix this?

I think you have to build with an old version of MSVC, 2010 maybe? It's been a while since I built it I don't remember the exactly which version ended up working.

2013 and 2015 are tested on the CIs.

Wasn't that just added? I don't think that CI was running for the version he is trying to compile.

IIRC 2013 is the version auto-tester is using and in use for a couple of years.
Only AppVeyor (VS 2015) was added recently.
