What do you mean "manually"? If you add a compiler installation by pointing to the DMD compiler executable at /usr/bin/dmd then the library paths should be filled automatically.

You still have to manually add the compiler installation by pointing to the DMD compiler executable, yes. I guess that step could be automated too, in Linux.

Seems like the raw HTTP file view of Git repositories in Google Code hosting is down at the moment. This mean the update site is not accessible:
http://updates.ddt.googlecode.com/git/
-> fails with a 404 error

If you wanna use the update site in the meanwhile, you can get it as a zip from: http://updates.ddt.googlecode.com/archive/aa309c6726c8e8d7635100a34abbad51542ebc9a.zip


I've opened an issue with Google Code, as I've seen this happen several times, a bit more often than it should IMO:

Having backed everything up (which means creating about 6 replicas for me), I took the plunge and s/4.2/4.3/ && s/juno/kepler/ for all my update sites and updated. It appears to have done the needful. Thanks for this, it has saved many hours of swearing.

"Bit annoying" amounts to a mega-understatement :-)

Now I just have to remove all the jars that are no longer needed. Why doesn't Eclipse "garbage collect it's local cache?

I've updated the Features wiki with new screenshots, and revised the text to be more clear:
http://code.google.com/p/ddt/wiki/Features
(like removing the "A JDT-like project model" references which actually doesn't mean anything to people who are not familiar with JDT)

Found a bug in the meanwhile, the DDoc viewer is not rendering $(D) DDoc macros.

Looking good! Should I shoot a post to reddit on Monday?

I've pointed path to the DMD compiler executable but the library paths weren't filled automatically. Maybe it's a bug? (eclipse CDT Kepler)

Someone else had a similar problem, a good guess is that you're running with a 1.6 JVM, you need a 1.7 JVM.

Yeah, it is a bug. It was a new feature in this release, but I made a mistake creating the test case (and then the implementation too)

Speaking of which, where does that macro come from? Seems similar to the D_CODE macro, but it's not documented as one of the default DDoc macros, nor could I find it as a custom defined macro.
