The convenience of RDMD comes from the fact, that it looks into the source files to determine what to do. I think it would be even more convenient to make a build tool for D, which would read special comments (much like DDOC, but dedicated to build process) for compiler flags and other build variables.<div class="gmail_extra">

I'd recommend RDMD. It can compile (and run) the given module and it's<br>
entire import tree. No build scripts are necessary.<br>
Very convenient with pragma(lib, "...")<br>

RDMD is quite good for compiling executables. It won't work for compiling libraries. Quite often a build script is needed to avoid repeating the same compiler/linker flags over and over again.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
