DCD is an IDE and editor-independent autocompletion system for the D programming language.

Release notes are available at the above link.

0.7.0 has some major changes to its internal structure, so please help me to test it.

I'd like to test, particularly under Win, but std.experimental.allocator (+ std.meta) are still not merged. If I understand correctly it means that DCD 0.7 will not be easily buildable until next pre-release (2.069-alpha)...in 2 monthes !

Brian made it easy for us, std.experimental.allocator is in the submodule containers.
std.meta is part of 2.068.
So it works with dmd-2.068.0-rc1, successful compilation :)

Thanks for the information. So Everything is fine.

Windows users that are used to buid with the bat file (because Digital Mars "make" doesn't accept the makefile) should get an updated version soon.

So far, so good. However i've found a way to crash the server even if it's a very laughable and unrealistic case; it crashes dmd too BTW.

---
struct Foo {
	int a;
	this(int a) { this.a = a; }
	static immutable Foo bar = Foo(1);
}

void main() {
    auto a = Foo.bar;
    import std.stdio;
        writeln(a.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar
    .bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar
    .bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar
    ...
    .bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar.bar
}

if you repeat the access chain .bar.bar etc, let's say 16X per line, for 4000X lines and try a dot completion then the server crashes.

it's a bug, yes, but i'm still speechless.
