DLL with same conventions as VC++

[Gilles G.]

Hello,
I am trying to build a dll using D.

In my first attempt to write it in C++, I add working calls with the main application by using something like:
   int __stdcall DLLVersion(){return 1;}
this also only worked with VC++ using a .def file like (couldn't manage to make it work using borland):
  EXPORTS
    DLLVersion

As I read the documentation, I understand (not sure) that in order to have equivalent calls, I must use:
  export extern(Windows) int DLLVersion(){return 1;}

The problem is that the main application doesn't seem torecognize the D DLL.
Any help would be fantastic!
