As I said on GitHub yesterday, you're better off with a normal
release package from
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/releases.
Anyway, your import paths are clearly wrong (no C:\LDC in there).
I guess you extracted an LDC archive into C:\D\dmd2\windows and
have C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin in your PATH, so that ldmd2 ends up
invoking C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\ldc2.exe or something like that. I
suggest running ldmd2 with `-v` to check the binary and config
file paths. The output should look similar to:
binary C:\LDC\ninja-ldc\bin\ldc2.exe
version 1.6.0git-366e2e4-dirty (DMD v2.076.1, LLVM
5.0.0git-64f4e71f1af)
config C:\LDC\ninja-ldc\bin\ldc2.conf (x86_64-pc-windows-msvc)
Otherwise, adapting your PATH environment variable should
definitely get you working.
