What did I expect? Better: What do I expect now. I've been using D for
years now. I think it's time for D to offer users the same stability

lurking around this board for a long time and gave up on d2 along time
ago. it is to scripty. i can not convince anybody at work to use it even
for small things under windows. some tried it and they say it is to
buggy, misses windows essentials and there seems to be no chance of
betterment via management or the compiler enthusiasts that rather
implement any fancy fart instead of getting the compiler stable, bug
free and usable.
it seems like this is a language experiment, unusable for serious
development.
i just downloaded current beta 2 and visual D. installs ok, no detection
of visual studio or any of the associated paths. visual D installed ok,
but a click on menu options killed visual studio.
i uninstalled successfully - hallelujah.
so i lurk around for an other year an see if D experiment is still
around and/or usable.
Both VisualD and dmd should work out of the box with MSVC and Visual
Studio. In the last year I have not seen any reports of either failing
out-right without something wrong with the users environment making it
problematic.
So please report any issues you're having. Because they are not regular
user experience.
