Hello all,

I've been researching this one error for many hours now using google and this discussion group, but have not come up with a solution.

Can anyone tell me what this error is and how to fix it?

Error 42: Symbol Undefined __init_5win324cool

I have seen Symbol Undefineds before, and it's usually a missing lib or something. Yes, other code in the same program is accessing the win32API, but the struct which is generating the error isn't external to the code...

I have a file called win32, and the struct inside that is called cool (a temp name). And it has to do with a static array inside the struct.

thanks,
joe

This seems like exactly the same problem I've got in Harmonia.

Try to remove -inline flag from call of dmd.exe - should help.

Are you compiling and linking the win32 file with your program, or just importing it? If you're just importing it, that would explain the error.

Thanks Andrew, but that did not work. I pasted the struct I was using into the main code file, and that worked. But as Bruno suggested, I wasn't actually specifying my win32.d file on the dmd command line. That is odd that it needed it, I thought the compiler would auto pull that in, and generate a master code file for compilation.

Yep, that was it. The other file was not being specifically listed on the command line. I thought the D compiler was auto-pulling in those other imported files? Oh well. Now I know. Thanks Bruno.

That's what Build does for you.
