Now that VisualD has been officially accepted onto the d-programming-language github, I decided to give it a try.

And failed.
Say I want to import derelict, how would I go about it?

Thanks.

Oops, I forgot to say what I actually did.

I added derelict to Compiler->General->Additional Imports.

The code is just this:

module main;

import std.stdio;
import derelict.opengl3.gl3;

void main()
{
	writeln("Hello D-World!");
}


And the build output is a symbol undefined linker issue:

Did you add the derelict library/libraries as linker inputs?

I haven't compiled derelict to a lib, I'm using the source directly.
With rdmd I can simply do -Ipath\to\derelict\source

The compilation model of rdmd is not supported by Visual D. You might be able to use rdmd as "other compiler" in the project options with additional options "--build-only".

On the other hand, you can also create a library from the project templates, then drag the source folder into the project to add all files. Then set a project dependency of your application to the library.

You can also create a dub package and generate visuald project from dub.
