So, I'm about to start working on a new project, but I want to be able to check for any D build errors without actually building anything. I was wondering if anything like this would be possible.

I'm dumb. I missed some stuff on the page for compiler information.

"dmd file.d -o- -c" does what I want!

If you did

dmd -c -o- *.d

that'd be as close as you can get (I think). -c means compile only, don't link, and -o- means don't write the object file, so it will skip the final part of building.

and *.d of course is the files in your project. Compiling them all at once by putting them all on the command line generally works best and fastest with compiling D.
