Actually, you were right. I was about to write that updating Visual D to the latest version worked. I'm sorry for this silly thread. Thank you all for your help and suggestions. | |||

The problem is that the semantic engine used by Visual D is working with the DMD frontend of 2.095, but "noreturn" is a new language feature introduced with 2.096.
You can filter out messages from "Intellisense" in the Error List window by selecting to show "Build only".
I hope I can supply a new version of Visual D with an updated semantic engine soon.

There is a new version 1.1.1 available now with the semantic engine updated to dmd 2.096.1.
