The Descent plugin for Eclipse provides an IDE for writing, launching 
and debugging code in D.

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

http://www.dsource.org/projects/descent

The site now also includes documentation about how to compile, run and 
debug programs in Descent.

There is only one feature: debugging!

You can now run and debug programs using Descent. The user interface is 
the one well known from Eclipse. The following views are available: 
debug (listing the stack frames), variables, breakpoints, expressions, 
registers and memory. A dissasembly view is planned for a next release.

Currently ddbg and gdb are supported, but other debuggers can be 
integrated easily (read at the end of 
http://www.dsource.org/projects/descent/wiki/DebuggingPrograms ).

There are also some bug fixes (for example, the one that made java 
shortcuts not work).

Hopefuly the next version will compile programs without the need to 
specify an external tool.
