Using ntohl from std.c.windows.winsock in a class member while also using something from std.socket causes linking errors. //TEST CASE import std.socket; import std.c.windows.winsock; pragma(lib, "wsock32.lib"); class IndexPacketReader { //static void foo() //works void foo() { ntohl(1); //fails } } void main() { new TcpSocket(); //ntohl(1); //works } E:\D\src\tmp>dmd bug003.d E:\D\dmd\bin\..\..\dm\bin\link.exe bug003,,,user32+kernel32/noi; OPTLINK (R) for Win32 Release 7.50B1 Copyright (C) Digital Mars 1989 - 2001 All Rights Reserved E:\D\dmd\bin\..\lib\phobos.lib(winsock) Offset 276FEH Record Type 00C3 Error 1: Previous Definition Different : _ntohl@4 --- errorlevel 1 Removing the "new TcpSocket()" makes it link. Making the class member static makes it link. Calling it from main makes it link. I have tried removing the pragma and specifying the .lib in the command line, no change. I have tried uising ws2_32.lib instead of wsock32.lib, no change. In my case I wrote my own ntohl to get past the problem.
Seems to work with DMD 2.054.
