The post appears in the two sections for some reason so there's no problem actually.

Even I don't use an IDE, the debugger support alone is so valuable that I can't imagine wokring without it... Great job!

Thank you very much, Rainer. Your efforts on this and the gc are really appreciated.

I installed it but I cannot choose a D project when creating a new project. I have VS2019 community edition but I'm running as a user without admin rights. If I use an account with admin rights, then I can actually choose a D project.

Very nice!

Please consider writing an article about your work!

Anyone who uses VisualD and Code-D can compare the two? (Yes, I know the difference between Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code).

The difference is night vs day... VisualD is, by far, like REALLY FAR, the
most mature and useful IDE and debug environment for D.
TL;DR: if you are a D dev, and you use Windows, you should definitely try
Visual Studio + VisualD. I for one couldn't work without it!

One great thing about Rainer doing VisualD is he has leveraged that to make crucial changes to dmd's output to better work with the Visual debugger.

VodualD is great. I appreciate the people behind it. Great thanks to your all.

Setting up visual D is not user friendly. I downloaded visualD+dmd+LDC since version 0.52 I could not run ordinary Hello World. All kind of errors. I seek help on the learn group several times to not help. My experience with visual D is bad.


Code-d on the order hand does not take 5mins to set up and you are good to go. It works great. Run your code without and errors. Code-d mirror well the ease of using the D compiler

Later on I will post my error here if anybody can help out.

Thanks to the authors of visualD and code-d, you people have done great job and should be proud of yourself. You have push D to another level of success and give users great ease of setting up D

A million thanks to you alll
