Cool!
What if that will be added as DMD command line option
DMD used to have the switch -gc, which meant to emit debug
information but pretend to be C as much as possible. It was
removed as it wasn't considered necessary any more, but this
looks like the perfect use case for it.
I suppose it's not possible to make Natvis understand D symbols?
Rainer Schuetze would be the person closest to this topic, I
think. Doesn't Visual D already have something in it to get the
VS debugger to understand some D types better?
Thanks for pointing me at -gc. That's way better place to
continue needed work for making Natvis working properly and
happy. Of course, the start is ugly, bat that's the start:
