You don't have access to druntime/Phobos stuff at runtime.
SimpleDllMain is for initializing and uninitializing druntime.

Hi,
I'm new to D and trying my hands on a few simple things. Being
able to build a Windows DLL with betterC enabled is of particular
interest to me, as I'd need it for a project that I'd like to do
in D.
I'm trying to follow some examples, such as

Thanks, fixing this single issue solved the compiler crash too.
Thanks also for the tip using hasUDA! Works nicely!
My d code doesn't compile using ldc2 1.0.0-alpha or anything
above DMD v2.068.0
Using these compilers I get a lot of "Warning: statement is not
reachable". Then the both compiler crashes.
I minimized the code to get the same warning, although the

Thanks Nicholas , I have integrated some of your advice on the

Try adding the automatic optimize flags in all your cases. For

Sorry, the main function of positive0.d correctly looks like this:
int main() {
return !((abs(-16) == 16)
&& (abs(3) == 3)
&& (square(5).absPositive == 25)
&& (square(-4).absPositive == 16));
}
But this does not affect the results, the asm file sizs or the
asm abs function bodies.
I made a thorough comparison using multiple compilers and a
summary of the findings. In short, there is a runtime overhead.
I reduced the code to cut out the imports and made two versions
with equivalent semantic content.

I got inspired by Andrei's "Generic Programming Must Go" talk:

I.e. writing functions with static if-s, based on what we know
about the input.
So the question is how to annotate the input variables?
