  Command: nim c --app:lib --cc:vcc first.nim I get a first.dll and a first.lib. And I know that first.dll running depend on nimrtl.dll.

  Command: nim c --app:lib --cc:vcc -d:useNimRtl second.nim I get a second.dll and a second.lib,also. I have tried second.dll depends on nimrtl.dll too.

  What can I get for using -d:useNimRtl ?

  How can I do to make the first.dll or the second.dll less dependent on the nimrtl.dll?

  What should I do, making it independent of nimrtl.dll,the other says?

  You can embed required memory manager into one of your DLLs and make the other DLLs use it. Then you don't need nimrtl.dll, but I don't really know which compile-time options it takes, nor do I see the advantage. You can also use C style memory management at the DLL boundaries and not be concerned with nimrtl.dll.
