it is seeminglx not possible to call d functions or initialize d classes from a function that is decorated with
extern(Windows)

extern (Windows) int WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow) {
	testery();
    DialogBox(hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG_MAIN), null, &Dialog_Main);
    return 0;
}


void testery() {
	  XXX testerx = new XXX;
	  testerx.Stop();
}


how does one call a D function or do a XXX testerx = new XXX; in such a function?
