Description Mike Wynn 2009-05-10 15:35:28 UTC 
I'm trying to get my port of the WIN32 headers working with Digital Mars D Compiler v2.029

(see the dsource project core32)

the minium set I can find to reproduce the issue is

set FLGS=-w -inline -release
dmd %FLGS% -c win32/com/OAIDL.d -I..
..... etc ....

lib -c win32.lib d3d8types.obj d3d8caps.obj dxerr8.obj DOCOBJ.obj OBJIDL.obj extras.obj MSHTMHST.obj OLEIDL.obj OAIDL.obj EXDISP.obj

Digital Mars Librarian Version 8.02n

Error: /PAGESIZE:16 is too small

N.B. this only appears with BOTH -release and -inline
-release -O  or -inline -O does not cause the error.

as I'm not too sure what the error means I'm at a bit of a loss to make a small test file that reproduces the error.

I've not attached any files as they can all be obtained from
svn ci http://svn.dsource.org/projects/core32/trunk/

There are two solutions.

One is to use the /p switch on lib.exe to make it larger, see http://www.digitalmars.com/ctg/lib.html

The other is to use dmd -lib to create the library. See http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/dmd-windows.html
