Does DMD have a -gc flag comparable to the LDC flag? (emit C
compatible debug information)
I thought it had that but seems like it doesn't exist actually. I
need it because the Visual Studio debugger (VSDBG) only works
with C/C++ style names and thinks arrays/associative arrays of
the form like int[] are illegal because of the []
It's also only possible to add wildcards inside C++ style
template arguments (<T>) so something like slice<T> in LDC would
be nice to have.
This would greatly improve the debugging experience on Windows as
then arrays and associative arrays could work with visualizers.
(like using the new natvis visualizer)
Only being restricted to LDC with -gc might be a bad constraint
for some users, so I'm looking for something that works with both
compilers. mago-mi doesn't seem to work at all (running works, no
breakpoint support or anything else though)
