The compilation model of rdmd is not supported by Visual D. You might be 
able to use rdmd as "other compiler" in the project options with 
additional options "--build-only".

On the other hand, you can also create a library from the project 
templates, then drag the source folder into the project to add all 
files. Then set a project dependency of your application to the library.
