Build fails on Win32 for basic socket program

import std.socket;

void main() {}

Fails with:

OPTLINK (R) for Win32  Release 8.00.15

Copying ws2_32.lib from a DMD archive release to the <build>\dm\lib directory fixes it.

P.S. sc.ini has WindowsSdkDir=\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A - is the drive letter and colon supposed to be omitted like that? Same thing for the VCINSTALLDIR variable (although it also points to a non-existant directory).

is the drive letter and colon supposed to be omitted like that?

Yes, it's valid Windows path syntax for a path relative to the current drive letter. The path is currently hardcoded as a temporary stop-gap until VC can be detected or locally downloaded and unpacked by Digger.

You can now use digger install to combine a full DMD install (with ws2_32.lib and others) with the latest DMD+Druntime+Phobos+Tools from git.

You can now also build with --with=extras to get ws2_32.lib on Win32, among other things.
