Digital Mars D compiler not generating debug info
When compiling a project with DMD and switches -g -debug (etc) are selected to generate debug info. No debug info is generated.
It seems that it is a failure at the link stage. The linker does not get the /CO[deview] switch. A possible workaround is: to pass to the compiler the -L flag.
This flag passes linker flags to the linker. For example
dmd.exe main.d -L/CO
should pass the /CO[deview] switch to the linker so that includes the necessary debug info.
This -L/CO flag should be passed to the linker, when the compiler switch -g (add symbolic info) is selected.
But I don't know how to do it.
