What is the D-extended gdb doing? I looked at d-lang.c and only
found some demangling stuff as well as rewriting D-specific
native types. I'd be more than happy to let gdb examine every
variable's properties etc, especially when it comes to debugging
templated/mixed-in stuff and interfaces - but well, I've got my
very C#-like toString() examination as 'ultimate' bonus
feature..it was awesome to have this feature integrated into gdb
by default, too though!
So btw, could you please define 'does not work'? Is there an
exception, is there just a silent quit, is there a mysterious
return value -1 when executing the program with the debugger?
Jameson, as you've already built MonoDevelop on your own, could
you please try cloning & building
https://github.com/llucenic/MonoDevelop.Debugger.Gdb.D.git,
putting the built dll in MonoDevelop's Addin directory (my best
practice: Make a symlink from /Addins to your /bin/Debug folder -
this way MD won't miss any recently rebuilt addin :-) )
