Hi, does someone know how soon there will be D plug in for MS Visual Studio 2005(2008 maybe)? Maybe there is one already? |

there is one. Kida Sorts. Look at dsource.org under projects. I forget what it's called and a running to late to go find it.

Posted in reply to kmd | http://www.dsource.org/projects/vsplugind This is the only one I know of. This plugin is out of date, buggy, and has very few features. kmd wrote: > Hi, does someone know how soon there will be D plug in for MS Visual Studio 2005(2008 maybe)? Maybe there is one already? |

Still, I think it's highly likely that IDE is vaporware. -- Bruno Medeiros - MSc in CS/E student http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?BrunoMedeiros#D |

Posted in reply to Downs | Thanks, I'll check it. Still I wish that D would fully work on VS. It can improve D language popularity greatly. I think D really good language but I using only VS as editor. |

It can improve D language popularity greatly. I think D really good language but I using only VS as editor. What is really missing for D to become usable in bigger projects is an integrated development environment with a working debugger. This is what I understand by a *working* integrated debugger: a.) You should be able to set breakpoints directly in the source code, halt the program at this breakpoints, step into the debugee, set new breakpoints, etc. All a sensible debugger is able to do. ;-) This is currently partly possible with the VC++ IDE, as it can read in the debugging info of the D compiler in OMF format (same as with windbg). However it seems, this doesn't work all times. Setting breakpoints in an IDE may also be possible with GDB based debuggers on Linux if using GDC, however I didn't try this yet. b.) You should be able to display the current values of all variables in a debugged program. This debugging info is not complete or can not displayed completely within the debuggers - I am not sure what's all missing here. But this is an important point, which makes debugger sessions for D programs *useless* todays, because you can only see simple variables like e.g. that if type "int". And who wants to start development if he can't find and fix bugs in a convenient way? Inserting printf calls to display the current variables can't be the solution. So who will extend D debugging info and/or starts a project for extending an IDE like Visual Studio to be able to overcome the current shortcomings?! Regards, Martin |

There is DDBG that works under code blocks. Most of item a is available and much of item b is there but not integrated (expression work but aren't available from the IDE, watches don't work etc.)
There is room for improvment but it's a start

In fact, I think some of the other IDEs (Code::Blocks or Poseidon, maybe?) have those features, too. |
