One year later, is there any progress on this? Now that gdc has
gained support for .so (it seems), lack of cmake support is the
only thing that is preventing me from adopting D. I agree that
cmake is not the prettiest thing out there, but I think there are
many good reasons for wanting it:
1) As already said, it's needed for CLion
2) Many programmers, including myself, are already familiar with
its syntax - pretty or not, learning a new tool is extra work
3) As far as I know, you can't mix C++ and D with dub
4) I could just drop D code in my pre-existing C++ projects
without much effort on the build system
I hope to hear some promising news on this side!
