void generateCodeAndWrite(Module[] modules, const(char)*[] libmodules, const(char)[] libname, const(char)[] objdir, bool writeLibrary, bool obj, bool oneobj, bool multiobj, bool verbose);

Generate code for modules and write objects/libraries

Parameters:

Module[] `modules`	array of Modules to generate code for
const(char)*[] `libmodules`	array of objects/libraries already generated (passed on command line)
const(char)[] `libname`	{.lib,.a} file output name
const(char)[] `objdir`	directory to write object files to
bool `writeLibrary`	write library file instead of object file(s)
bool `obj`	generate object files
bool `oneobj`	write one object file instead of multiple ones
bool `multiobj`	break one object file into multiple ones
bool `verbose`	print progress message when generatig code

Symbol* bzeroSymbol;

common location for immutable zeros

void obj_append(Dsymbol s);

Append s to list of object files to generate later. Only happens with multiobj.

tym_t totym(Type tx);

Return back end type corresponding to D front end type.

Symbol* getBzeroSymbol();

Generate readonly symbol that consists of a bunch of zeros. Immutable Symbol instances can be mapped over it. Only one is generated per object file.

Returns:

bzero symbol
