NAME
       dmd - Digital Mars D1.x Compiler

SYNOPSIS
       dmd files ... [ -switch ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       dmd Compiles source code written in the D programming language.

OPTIONS
       file, file.d, file.htm, file.html
	      D source files to compile

       file.di
	      D interface files

       file.o Object files to link in

       file.a Library files to link in

       -c     Compile only, do not link

       -cov   Include code coverage analysis

       -D     Generate documentation

       -Dddocdir
	      Write documentation file to docdir directory

       -Dffilename
	      Write documentation file to filename

       -d     Allow deprecated features.

       -debug Compile in debug code

       -debug=level
	      Compile in debug code <= level

       -debug=ident
	      Compile in debug code identified by ident

       -debuglib=name
	      Set the symbolic debug library to name

       -defaultlib=name
	      Set the default library to name

       -deps=filename
	      Write module dependencies to filename

       -fPIC  Generate position independent code.

       -g     Add symbolic debug info.

       -gc    Add symbolic debug info in C format (for older gdb's.)

       -H     Generate D interface file.

       -Hddir Write D interface file to dir directory.

       -Hffilename
	      Write D interface file to filename

       --help Print help

       -Ipath Where to look for imports.  path is a : separated list of paths.
	      Multiple -I s can be used, and the paths	are  searched  in  the
	      same order.

       -ignore
	      Ignore unsupported pragmas.

       -inline
	      Inline expand functions

       -Jpath Where to look for string imports.	 path is a : separated list of
	      paths. Multiple -I s can be used, and the paths are searched  in
	      the same order.

       -Llinkerflag
	      Pass linkerflag to the linker, for example, -M

       -lib   Generate a library rather than object files

       -man   Open web browser on manual page

       -nofloat
	      Do not emit reference to floating point

       -O     Optimize

       -o-    Suppress generation of object file

       -odobjdir
	      write  object  files relative to directory objdir instead of the
	      current directory

       -offilename
	      set output file name to filename in the output directory

       -op    normally the path for .d source files is stripped off when  gen‐
	      erating an object file name.  -op will leave it on.

       -profile
	      Profile the runtime performance of the generated code

       -quiet Suppress non-essential compiler messages

       -release
	      Compile release version

       -run srcfile args...
	      Compile,	link, and run the program srcfile with the rest of the
	      command line,  args..., as the arguments to the program.	No  .o
	      or executable file is left behind.

       -unittest
	      Compile in unittest code

       -v     verbose

       -v1    Compile with D version 1

       -version=level
	      compile in version code >= level

       -version=ident
	      compile in version code identified by ident

       -w     Enable warnings

LINKING
       Linking	is  done  directly by the dmd compiler after a successful com‐
       pile. To prevent dmd from running the linker, use the -c switch.

       The actual linking is done by running gcc.  This ensures	 compatibility
       with modules compiled with gcc.

FILES
       /etc/dmd.conf dmd will look for the initialization file dmd.conf in the
       directory /etc.	If found, environment variable settings	 in  the  file
       will override any existing settings.

ENVIRONMENT
       The D compiler dmd uses the following environment variables:

       DFLAGS	 The  value of DFLAGS is treated as if it were appended on the
		 command line to dmd.

BUGS
       -g is only implemented for line numbers, not local symbols,  because  I
       haven't	figured out how to do it yet.  gdb still works, though, at the
       global symbol level.

       The code generator output has not been tuned yet, so it can be bloated.

       Shared libraries cannot be generated.

       The exception handling is not compatible with the way g++  does	it.  I
       don't know if this is an issue or not.

       The compiler sometimes gets the line number wrong on an error.
