 So, are you saying that it might be possible to create a D plugin for NB 6.7?
 Also, what is ANTLR?
 Thanks,

    Perhaps this links can help you, the interview is a bit old and I've seen
no news about it, in the forum, you can see there is some people interested in
such a plugin:

    Bear in mind, this doesn't mean that it's sometthing easy to do, but there
are many language support plugins already to use as a basis.

 PS :what happens to Netbeans since ORACLE is the new SUN Owner?




    There has been many hot threads on this topic in the Netbeans forum.
Nothing for sure yet, but a lot of people has invested a lot of time with it,
specially those who build applications based on the Netbeans Platform:

    I don't see it going in the near future, if Oracle drops support for it,
the most likely is that a community will form to continue its development. Some
people suggested that the core developers could create a company to guide core
development and sell premium services.
    Nothing for sure yet...

HTH, cheers,
