The Descent plugin for Eclipse provides an IDE for writing, launching

Explanations on how to get it from within Eclipse are here:

For this release Robert Fraser made an excelent addition: when compiling 
programs using an external tool such as dsss, rebuild, dmd, gdc, ldc, 
gdmd or bud, there are now links to the files in the console output for 
warnings and errors. I think this one was pretty requested. So say 
thanks to him! :-)

This release has also some enhancements/bug-fixes:



  - "Run as D application" should appear most of the time in correct 
places, as requested in the forums.

Any suggestion, critic or bug report is welcome. You can use:

I didn't know about that. Very nice.

Do I need to enable this somewhere? external tools (bud) != nice links like in the screenshot :(

Is the executable name any of "bud" or "bud.exe"? I think that's what the process name is for Eclipse, and the links are associated to the process name (not to the name you choose for the external tool).

:) May I suggest adjusting the filter to "bud*.exe" or add a note on dsource as I sometimes append the version to the filename.

The method I'm using is a really weird hack where the executable names are hardcoded in the plugin.xml and there's no way to filter based on anything but absolute strings. I may need to implement a different type of external tool that adds links... I'll ask in the eclipse NG.
