Some simple extensions to dub are required for proper windows 
support:

1. The Ability to generate full build selections for Visual D. I 
only get Win32 when using `dub generate VisualD`. Win64 support 
should be added, along with alternate compiler support. (GDC and 
LDC)

2. The ability to refresh a project by adding new dependencies 
and files to the previously generate Visual D project. It should 
retain modified settings of the project file. I'm thinking of 
something like `dub refresh VisualD` would work.

The current generate settings are just child's toys without the 
ability to retain and update project info.

Thank You.

You have to use flags to configure the project.

No, I am talking about adding the different build options inside 
the visual studio project. When one generates the project, it 
should add the 64bit build options regardless. It is a standard 

require a flag to set. It doesn't change the architecture but 
only provides a simple build option.

When I use the flag, I only get 64... I want both!!! I should be 
able to switch seemlessly between 64-bit and 32-bit by using the 
configuration manager/combo box like every other normal project 
in VS has as default.

Ah, yeah, that makes sense.

To me personally setting project working directory to $(OUTDIR) 
when generating would be nice. Doesn't sound like a hard thing to 
do, I'll try making a pull request for that.

I don't mind too much where it is put but I would just like it to 
work well and provide the standard build options to make life 
easy.
