The XCode installer DMG is 5GB, before unpacking. And unlike VS17, I can't pick and choose. :)

btw. (and I do realise we've gone way of the topic of this original thread)...but...

if it interests anyone, this is the outcome of yesterday, where I wasted my whole day trying to get DMD to compile a 64bit .exe on a fresh install of Windows 7.

(and ..I had to muck around with service packs, and .NET frameworks and stuff before hand too).

It's the *minimum* 'selection set' you'll need (with regards to the Visual Studio Build Tools 2017) in order to get DMD to sucessfully compile a 64bit exe (-m64)

Now to be fair, this is assuming you **don't** want and **don't** have VS installed, but just want the necessary 'build tools' so that DMD can build a *64bit* binary on Windows - (in total about 3.5GB).
