I'm having trouble with COFFIMPLIB in windows, I've run it on gtk-win32-2.0.lib, but the resulting .exe keeps wanting to link when running against gtk-win32-2.0 (not gtk-win32-2.0.dll).

Am I missing a flag required?  Anyone successfully got COFFIMPLIB working with D?

I haven't actually tried using it.

Have you tried the instructions? It lists what the switches are. http://www.digitalmars.com/ctg/coffimplib.html

Following the instructions to the letter, when I use the -v switch, the pretty output shows that coffimplib is stripping the .dll off the library (when opening in a hex editor, the library internally has the .dll extension)

Seems to be a bug... if no one has any idea I'll forward this to Walter...
