digitalmars.D - Integrating DMD into IDE (Code::Blocks)

reply Cris <central_p hotmail.com> writes:
We've been discussing the Code::Blocks support with one of its 
developers last night.

Code::Blocks has some basic support for DMD & the D language now and can 
be used to create and compile projects but there are problems. It cannot 
generate debug information.

We have investigated the problem and found out that the switch /CO is 
not passed to the linker link.exe, although -g -debug etc. are passed to 
dmd.exe

Are there any HOWTOs or tips how DMD can be intergrated in a IDE?

Does anybody else use Code::Blocks for D?

Sounds like a Code::Blocks problem, and can probably be handled there.
(link flags are possible to pass on to DMD, using the -L flag to it...)

I am using Code::Blocks, but mostly interested in the GNU compilers...
(Working on adding support for Mac OS X, and for GDC, to Code::Blocks)

Yes it is but the problem can be solved by somebody knowledgeable about 
CB and DMD.
CB compiles all .d files one by one and then links them.

The flag -L might actually help if I knew how to include it in CB.

Yeah, see my homepage at http://www.algonet.se/~afb/
Or the "gdcmac" and "wxd" projects at SourceForge...

Code::Blocks is kinda working on Mac OS X, but it has
some layout problems that obscures the text edit area.

Oh, I thought that was an internet acronym for 'away from brain', like 
afk for 'away from keyboard'.

Only on some days. Saturdays and Mondays likely candidates. :-D

It also has another meaning in the US, i.e. http://www.afb.org/
or http://www.af.mil/. But no, it's just my company and initials.

Any idea why this incorrect code crashesh Code::Blocks when compiling 
with DMD?

     struct VideoMode { int width; int height; };
