I could avoid the crashes with this change to dmd: https://github.com/rainers/dmd/commit/2b3fc197bd86fc358f349182798d8142f1564177 BTW: Don't miss to enable "Colorize identifiers from semantic analysis" for more colorful editing. This also helps the debugger a bit by identifying compile time entities that should not be displayed in a data tooltip, but the regular one which can show aliases and enum values not found in the debug information.

It works better if you also configure the LDCshared project to define version identifiers MARS and IN_LLVM (separated by a ';' as in "MARS;IN_LLVM"), set the string import path "../ldc/res" and disable warnings for deprecations. Thx again, now I'm finally getting somewhere! Wrt. earlier, dmdserver.exe was still running in the background (but had only consumed 3 secs of CPU time and didn't seem to do anything anymore). Btw nice that that's a 64-bit executable, lots of memory for huge projects...

That can happen when the semantic analysis asserts and crashes the background process. It works better if you also configure the LDCshared project to define version identifiers MARS and IN_LLVM (separated by a ';' as in "MARS;IN_LLVM"), set the string import path "../ldc/res" and disable warnings for deprecations.

After figuring that one has to open the file properties via right-click (i.e., not available in the quick properties or however they are called), that worked, thx. It doesn't get past the 'Analyzing...' stage though (in tooltips), no [IntelliSense] errors show up in the errors pane.
