digitalmars.D.ide - Looking for a D syntax highlighter for Lazarus SynEdit

Hello, you probably know the multi-pltaform IDE "Lazarus". It has 
a great code editor component called SynEdit.

If an advanced D user writes a D parser/tokenizer in Object 
Pascal and a SynEdit highlighter for D, then Lazarus could be 
used to write an awesome IDE for D...

Currently I use Xamarin under windows and Geany under linux but I 
think something better could be made in Laz...Neither Geany nor 
MonoDevelop are "really" dedicated to D...(same remark about 
code:block)...

Interesting! I really like Lazarus. // Samuel

You can use Xamarin (Monodevelop) under linux too

No... on the Fedora official repo latest version is monoDev 2.8.x, which is not compat with the D lang. binding plugin (it recquires the dev.package v IDE 3.0). And it's impossible to compile version 3 because the MonoDev repo misses some files in the unit test folder...But it seems that the version 4.0 will be available soon under linux.

I have ArchLinux and everything works perfect. (mono-2.10, monodevelop-4, and latest mono-d plugin). BTW. It is possible to build mono-3, there are no missing files anymore. PKGBUILD for arch should help you: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mo/mono-beta/PKGBUILD

Ugh, I've had this problem too. It's strange, normally fedora is pretty good at staying up to date.

It's not fedora's fault. Xamarin doesn't provide updated packages for linux.

Indeed, SynEdit is quite cool.

At least a tokenizer should not be a problem. A parser gets a bit more complex. Did you start such a project aleady? I'd be interested in seeing whats going on.

hmmm, i mostly use vi or kate, but my D projects are not so large yet that a full-featured IDE would be required.

No not yet. I briefly studied how it's possible to write the highlighter, I think it 's quite straightforward for someone who masters D (not my case, I'm learning), furthemore there is already a C++ example and the Delphi example shows how to make a "highlighter with folding". About the tokenizer it would be used for the completion or an error insight system...but it's not the first thing to do (IMO). I also think that the IDE could be partially be written in D, as FPC can link obj files (not quite sure if they use the same format ELF ? OMF ? COFF ?). I'll put a link to the project in the future, in case there would be one...

On Windows there is also an awesome free alternative, I've just "discovered" a few days ago: Visual-D ! People will say that it's rather well known but you can install it for FREE with VisualStudio 2012 shell (integrated + isolated). VS is a rock-solid IDE and the Visual-D plugin is as good as mono-D. And you can debug btw...
