This argument may work for you but it definitely doesn't work for me. Using a language like Python, Groovy, Clojure, Lisp: 1. Edit 2. Run With D and Go, both of which claim compilation so fast you do not notice: 1. Edit 2. Compile 3. Run This is a 50% overhead (*). Even with LiteIDE and Gogland, you have the 3 stage sequence for Go programming, and it is a wee bit annoying. If and only if you have continuous compilation without manual intervention, does Stage 2 go away. As far as I am aware there is currently no continuous compilation framework for D. Now using inotify , it should be possible. However Meson/Ninja, CMake/Ninja, SCons, etc. do not support this out of the box. IntelliJ IDEA and CLion should be able to support this, but D support isn't yet there out of the box (**). (*) Clearly a fatuous number, but there is an election in UK, so fatuous statistics are order of the day. (**) IntelliJ-Dlanguage project could always do with more eople working on it. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
