DMD has the obscure functionality to install functions starting with
_STI_ as global ctors and funtions starting with _STD_ as global
dtors. IMHO a pragma is a better way to specify the behaviour.
This commit adds pragma(LDC_global_crt_ctor) and
pragma(LDC_global_crt_dtor). If the pragma is specified on a function
or static method then an entry is made in the corresponding list. E.g.
in monitor_.d:
extern (C) {
#pragma(LDC_global_crt_ctor)
void _STI_monitor_staticctor()
{
// ...
}
}
This works on Linux without problems. On Windows with MS C Runtime
ctors work always but dtors are invoked only if linked against the
static C runtime. Dtors on Windows require at least LLVM 3.2.
