DCD integration

Hans-Albert Maritz (Freakazo) implementated DCD integration using DCD client/server. Keywan Ghadami improved it to use DCD as a library.

Building DlangIDE

Build and run with DUB:

git clone https://github.com/buggins/dlangide.git
cd dlangide
dub run

If you see build errors, try to upgrade dependencies:

dub upgrade --force-remove
dub build --force


Needs DMD 2.066.1 or newer to build.

HINT: Try to open sample project Tetris, from workspaces/tetris with DlangIDE.

To develop in VisualD together with DlangUI, put this project on the same level as dlangui repository, and its dependencies.

Keyboard shortcut settings

Keyboard shortcuts settings support is added.

For linux and macos settings are placed in file

~/.dlangide/shortcuts.json

For Windows, in directory like

C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\.dlangide\shortcuts.json

If no such file exists, it's being created on DlangIDE start, filling with default values to simplify configuration.

Just edit its content to redefine some key bindings.

File format is simple and intuitive. Example:

{
    "EditorActions.Copy": "Ctrl+C",
    "EditorActions.Paste": "Ctrl+V",
    "EditorActions.Cut": "Ctrl+X",
    "EditorActions.Undo": "Ctrl+Z",
    "EditorActions.Redo": [
        "Ctrl+Y",
        "Ctrl+Shift+Z"
    ],
    "EditorActions.Indent": [
        "Tab",
        "Ctrl+]"
    ],
    "EditorActions.Unindent": [
        "Shift+Tab",
        "Ctrl+["
    ],
    "EditorActions.ToggleLineComment": "Ctrl+/",
    "EditorActions.ToggleBlockComment": "Ctrl+Shift+/"
}
