Things have a little bit evolved since the last time I checked the D programming language web site. An updated pdf version of the D language specification is available and the poseidon IDE is catching momentum.
There are some other nice features I forgot to mention in the previous note. Here is a short list:
- static asserts and if evaluated at compile time
- mixins of code and templates
- contract programming (pre and post conditions)
- version and debug keywords for conditional compilation
- scopes
There are probably more gems in there, but these are a good start to catch the added value of D compared to other programming languages. Note that D is not an academic research product. It has been created by compiler writers that capitalized their experience in designing a new and better language.
