'D' compiler is not fully supported! UTF-8 to the masses :)
Game_Ender:
GDC is not a new compiler, it is a new frontend for GCC, much like GJC is java front end for GCC. DMD is the reference/standard compiler created by Walter Bright (the language creator) and it basically sets the language feature set. It uses the same optimizer and code generator that DMC uses. In fact the frontend of DMD is the main part of the code for GDC. D really needs to get its act together about shared libraries and such. Last I checked (a few weeks ago) DMD couldn't create shared libraries on Linux, and separate compilation units have trouble with templates so GDC can't compile some of cooler template code.
EDIT: DMD can't create shared libraries on linux, had to update that.

Right, what I meant was: why are they new compilers in Code::Blocks ?
Game_Ender:
Wow, I was completely off base there that does make good sense.

Look Ptomaine, if you like [whatever_ide_goes_here] better, please, just use it.

You right! I use it for tasks I think it works better for me. And this IS NOT the reason for you to be aggressive to US. Usually, good companies pay very close attension to their customer feedbacks. Why you try to argue to me while I'm trying to help imporoving CB? I do not understand.

Because noone has sent a patch for it. It's that simple.

It's not that simple at all. Read the previous posts.
-------------------------------
Anyway, I do not want to argue here. I want to discuss the subject and to get an answer.

Is it, because you didn't try Edit->File encoding?
