Thanks for the suggestions, the extern(C) thing doesn't

Scratch that.. it doesn't actually work: the disassembly
doesn't not contain any mangled names, I mistook a hex value
for the mangled name.
I suspect you are trying to watch a thread local variable that
uses indirect addressing.
With shared or __gshared variables, you see the symbol being
used as debug information, but the debugger cannot handle that
as a C++ expression.
You can see the mangled symbol with "pragma(msg, var.mangleof)"
at compile time. Using this in the watch window shows it as a
"void*", which you can then cast to your type using C++-Syntax,
e.g. "*(int*)_D3mod3tlsi".
I'd recommend installing Visual D including the debugger
extension mago instead, though ;-)
Ok thanks for the help!
