Come one, let's be ones: If DMD has no x64 linker, VS integration is not a bit optional.
Unlike some other operating systems, 64-bit Windows versions can run 32-bit software just fine. If you require targeting Win64 (or the Microsoft C runtime), that is specific to your use case.
And, again, Visual Studio is not required if you want to target Win64 - only the necessary toolchain components (linker and C runtime), which you can also obtain from an SDK.
So you are telling me "not working at all" is not worth releasing a fix? xD
Again, everything should be already working. We are talking about a convenience feature that automatically sets up the D compiler's configuration file, nothing more. That's all there is to the "integration". You can trivially do the same thing by hand, or set up your environment accordingly - all in a fraction of the time it took you to write these pointless complaints on this forum.
