Well it took a little while, but I can confirm that if you have a
D function like:
```
extern(C) void DCallee() {
import core.stdc.stdio : printf;
printf("Entered DCallee.\n");
printf("Exiting DCallee.\n");
}
```
called from a C function like:
```
// C Master calling D (under -betterC restrictions).
#include
extern void DCallee();
int main()
{
printf("MastC Entered.\n");
DCallee();
printf("MastC Exiting.\n");
return 0;
}
```
Where the compilation is run from the batch file:
```
Rem Compile, link and run batch file.
IF EXIST .\DCallee.exe del .\DCallee.exe
IF EXIST .\DCallee.map del .\DCallee.map
IF EXIST .\DCallee.obj del .\DCallee.obj
IF EXIST .\MastC.exe del .\MastC.exe
IF EXIST .\MastC.map del .\MastC.map
IF EXIST .\MastC.obj del .\MastC.obj
dmd -m32omf -betterC -c DCallee.d
dmc MastC.c DCallee.obj
MastC.exe
Rem Exited compile, link and run batch file.
```
Then everything runs properly.
As an aside, it was a surprise to me to discover that the order
of the file names in the
dmc line was significant, bearing in mind MastC.c contains a
'main' function, and DCallee.d does not.
As a further aside, I do recall the installer loading Visual
Studio, but it didn't seem to help.

It is not an essential component of dmd. It is one option in the usage of an experimental feature inside of dmd that is not ready for general use.

Hmm, it turns out that using this a call to lsp-mode with this
never triggers a call to the elisp function `serve-d-command`
. I don't see what's wrong.

How do I most easily get the debug output from

?

Re: ImportC issue?
Yeah cl is the MSVC compiler being used for preprocessing. So for whatever reason its not using dmc, hence the error.
ImportC issue?

Its a little tricky, because the basic setup works e.g. with
emacs 27.2 or newer, but not with 27.1.
All that is needed (if you have the right emacs version and use
straight for installing packages) is:
I'm having problems with serve-d + eglot in Emacs. All calls to
```
eglot-find-declaration
eglot-find-implementation
eglot-find-typeDefinition
```
answers as
```
eglot--error: [eglot] Sorry, this server doesn't do
:textDocument/declaration
```
Are neither of
```
:textDocument/declaration
```
supported? If so what lsp request type should I use to
lookup/navigate to definitions? Without such functionality I see
no use of eglot.
. I'm currently using
```elisp
(use-package eglot
;; :straight t
:ensure t
:defer t
:hook (d-mode . eglot-ensure)
:config
(progn
