I just released a new version of code-d, it now supports projects without any dub.json file which some people probably will like. This is really useful for standalone projects with a custom build system like writing an OS/Kernel or other projects that don't want to use dub.

Additionally some bugs like the dcd-server staying open got fixed.

But probably the biggest news for this update is the improved support for DlangUI markup language.

It's is now completing enums for enum fields and true/false. Also it knows about the relations between the Widget classes so it will also complete all inherited children.

If you want to give it a try just install the most recent workspace-d build using the workspace-d CLI installer:

https://github.com/Pure-D/workspace-d-installer

Once you have workspace-d installed and added the binaries to your path you can simply install the latest stable release of code-d in vscode using 'ext install code-d'

If you have any suggestions/ideas/feedback don't forget to post it as reply to this post.

PS:

If you need a debugger frontend (currently GDB and LLDB) for vscode, try my debugging extension. It supports most features and D is working like a charm in there: https://github.com/WebFreak001/code-debug (install using 'ext install gdb')

Additionally if you use dub for your projects you can now get an additional package version manager from the vscode marketplace which makes sure your dependencies are up to date.

ext install versionlens

then open a dub.json file and you are ready to go

It would really help to state first of all that code-d is a D extension for Visual Studio Code which is a nice thing even though I never tried it.

Is it work only with GDC and LDC? Because with DMD it doesn't.
Then where I can get GDC and LDC for Windows (of course, I'm about binaries)?

P.S. Windows 7 x64

Right, gonna fix the bugs later. Didn't test it on windows yet

the debugger extension is using GDB or LLDB, just install one of those programs. Both GDB and LLDB work with gdc, ldc and dmd

I have installed GDB, and debugging doesn't start.
In previous version of code-d I saw something like "not in executable format: File format not recognized" in the console output (current version has no any messages).

LLDB - I didn't found binaries for Widnows.

Not sure how that happens... You need code-debug and just follow the instructions in the code-debug README.

But both for GDB and LLDB you need to compile it yourself for Windows
