The linker path search behavior has changed since 0.11.0 for x86_64-windows-gnu

[haohaolee]

Zig Version

0.11.0

Steps to Reproduce and Observed Behavior

1. cat libtest.c

int test_add(int a, int b) {
    return a + b;
}

2. cat test.c

int test_add(int, int);
int main() {
    return test_add(1, 2);
}

3. zig cc -target x86_64-windows-gnu -c -o libtest.o -fPIC libtest.c
4. zig ar cr libtest.a libtest.o

zig cc -target x86_64-windows-gnu -L. -Wl,-Bdynamic -ltest test.c
error: unable to find Dynamic system library 'test' using strategy 'no_fallback'. searched paths:
  ./test.dll

Expected Behavior

Build successful. Actually it worked on 0.10.1.

If I change -Wl,-Bdynamic to -Wl,-Bstatic, the build starts working, It seems since 0.11.0, zig cc stops searching '*.a' for -Bdynamic.

But there are so many build systems that generate -Wl,-Bdynamic for "*.a" for at least mingw build.
