           Summary: How to remove unittest when linking
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1

I have not been able to finf a way to link program without unittest if I link
with library archives which has been compile with -unittest.

The if just one of the .a/.o has been compile with -unittest the main program
is linked with unittest.

This means that you have to recompile all the libraries or else the main just
run the unittest.

This has changed after the dmd compiler --DRT-testmode=run-main was introduced.

I don't know if the dmd/linker has a switch which can force unittest out of the
linking process?

Best
Carsten
