Thanks a lot. I've been using VisualD almost as long as I've been 
using D and it's always been great.

If you have a dub project that you want to open in VisualD, go to 
project root (where dub.json or dub.sdl is located) and execute 
this command:

dub generate visuald

This will generate a .sln file that you can open in Visual Studio 
if you have the VisualD extension installed.

I know it. However, integration (such as done in Mono-d) is much 
more convenient.

For each change of architecture, build type, configuration, or 
compiler will need to redo that command.

I've shortly looked into that, but the first bummer was the file 
extension .json. Making this a Visual Studio project file would disallow 
editing .json files inside the Visual Studio editor (unless you go 
through some special open modes).

Having an additional .visualdproj file in the source folder defeats the 
purpose of a single project file (dub.json) for all platforms.

My current best guess is to add a command to the Visual D menu that lets 
the user select a dub.json file and creates a hidden Visual D project 
file into the .dub folder.

Having never used dub myself but for some exeriments, it's not very high 
on my agenda, so that's all that has happened so far ;-)

If there is enough interest, it might move further up that list. You can 
show your interest by voting or commenting
