There is trick for gcc:
gcc -dM -E - < /dev/null

It shows all default #defines

Is there way to show all version identifiers for D?
For all or any compiler you know

trivial answer, let's say you have dcd-server running in the background:

dcd-client -c8 <<< "version("

Thanks. Will try.

But it was a joke actually. It works but this is not very straightforward. And it needs a bit of post processing since the output you'll get is normally made for the completion menu of D editors.

Maybe it is what I'm searching for if there is a way to specify
compiler/parser.

Looks like it shows all version identifiers listed in
https://dlang.org/spec/version.html#version
and it's not what I want. I need just actual ones under some
compiler/circumstances

would be easy with compiler as a library...
also i thought 'dmd -v -version=foo -c -o- bar.d' would show -version
identifiers used on the command line but doesn't seem to
