[dmd-internals] [user32.lib] Error 43: Not a Valid Library File

[Geoffrey Gowey via dmd-internals]

Hello everyone,

I've got a particularly painful problem when trying to compile and link.
I'm try to build a windows service using example code from
https://github.com/tylerjensen/WindowsServiceInD , but am running into
problems.  If I don't include any paths or modify any project settings then
I get missing symbol errors for RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerExA despite the
fact that advapi32.lib is in C:\D\dmd2\windows\lib so I've added the
advapi32.lib in the local SDK as well as the path for the SDK libraries to
the project settings, but now I'm getting a new error:
