// -----------------------------------
module test;
import core.stdc.stdio;
extern (C) int main()
{
printf("hello world\n");
return 0;
}
// -----------------------------------
compiled with dmd v2.077.0, using the -betterC option, I get:
.. on windows ..
23k executable if 32bit (i.e. -m32 )
112k executable if 64bit (i.e. -m64 )
.. on freebsd ..
5.6k executable if 32bit (i.e. -m32 )
7.5k executable if 64bit (i.e. -m64 )
This is not meant to be an anti-windows thing...so let me stop
those responses right here.
I am genuinely interested in understanding why the 'order of
magnitude' increase for the 64bit executable on Windows?
