Dexed, the D Extended EDitor, is an IDE for the D programming language, its compilers, tools and libraries.
Basile B. has now re-uploaded Dexed on Gitlab and appears to have resumed regular development on it. Thus, my repository here is no longer necessary.
- available for Linux or Windows.
- supports all the D compilers (DMD-GDC-LDC).
- supports the DUB projects (JSON or SDL) and also its own project format.
- support the DUB scripts (aka single file packages) and its own script format (aka runnable modules).
- full D Completion Daemon integration (completion, ddoc display, call tips, jump to declaration, rename identifier).
- Dynamic D-Scanner linting with results displayed in the editor gutter.
- single click to compile and to unittest a module and optionally display tests coverage.
- advanced editor with D2 syntax highlighter, folds, regions, identifier markup, macros, sync-edit, etc.
- additional highlighters for C and C++ sources, based on the D color scheme, for other files a generic bicolor highlighter is used.
- edition helpers: comment blocks, local identifier renaming, brace auto-closing, ddoc templates, etc.
- Debugging with a GDB gui. (linux only)
- Integrated terminal emulator. (linux + GTK2 widget set only)
- Tree of symbols in the current module.
- static library manager that supports auto-registration from local DUB projects, from online DUB packages or from dexed custom project format.
- todo list based on the todo comments located in a project or in the current source.
- user-defined tools powered by a string interpolation system.
- integrated file browser, dfmt interface, search & replace, etc.
- 📜 licensed under the terms of the Boost software license.
This project is now specifically being developed using the trunk versions of both Free Pascal and Lazarus, and uses language features that will not compile using FPC 3.0.4.
If Lazarus complains that it cannot find the LGenerics package, it means that you have not opened and compiled etc/LGenerics/lgenerics/LGenerics.lpk at least once.
