I'm new to CodeBlocks as well to D and in the phase of choosing the right tools for our open-source project.
Considering that we plan to use QtD and that CodeBlocks is open-source, have you thought about adding some (more) specific support (if required) to be able to develop Qt applications using CB IDE?

Yes, it could be extended to other project templates too (beyond "Console" and "wxWidgets"), such as "GTK+ project" (GtkD) and "Qt4 project" (QtD). Or "SDL project" or "OpenGL project", etc.
But adding a new D to Code::Blocks, next to the C and CPP, is still the biggest change needed.
--- Code: ---/// Struct to keep programs
struct CompilerPrograms
{
wxString C; // C compiler
wxString CPP; // C++ compiler
--- End code ---
Once Code::Blocks knows the difference between C++ and D, it's easier to teach the wizards ?
The difference between D and D2 is more like the difference between C and C99 or C++ and C++0x, so that should be a smaller change even it requires running a different program rather just than a switch.
The hardest part is getting the code-completion to work with D, without "cheating" (i.e. C/C++).

This sounds encouraging (for potential D developers). :D

Do C:B devs have such things on their TODO or do you suggest submitting some feature requests to the bug tracker?

As far as I'm concerned, I'm coming from Haskell world (where there is very nice haskell-mode for Emacs) to the D and, (most probably, afaict) D-mode is not as 'intelligent' as former.
However, I've hope that I can (softly) suggest to all the members of the team to accept CodeBlocks as multi-platform IDE for our project, so having decent support for D would be terrific. :wink:
bioinfornatics:
some news about D support on codeblocks ?
what is the status?
bioinfornatics:
ping :P
wangdong1226:
I would support this topic also.
We still need the info that does CodeBlocks have some kind of timeschedule for that?
More and more people noticing and will using D in future, and D itself is growing every day.
please notice the stauts under this link: http://www.dsource.org/projects/phobos/timeline
It is strongly recommended that CodeBlocks should fully support D (basicly, it should starting from codecompletion for D. )
